Transient for M'lady Fay

Transient.

A rain drop sparkles in the sun
Refracting light prismatically.
Primary colours every one
collectively and separately
Though in itself quite colourless ,
It can convert white light into.
Any colour more or less
A most impressive range of hues.
Sadly the magic cannot last
The raindrop will evaporate.
The present will become the past.
This is not open to debate.
There is no room for argument.
Rain drops are always transient

Fay has as much magic going for her as the raindrops in any sky could hold. ;)

A fine observation of a single raindrop and encased in such impressive phrasing we catch a glimpse of the beauty it holds - even though transient. A scintillating read and a big thank you for the dedication. - - Fay
