"à cœur vaillant rien d’impossible [nothing is impossible to a willing heart]" -French Proverb


Silent drops tremble
Before they tumble
Make a circlet ripple
On the mirror liquid puddle

A gentle shifting
A tiny head lifting
Bedewed petals spreading
Perfect life sifting
Water from an earthly bedding

Titanic giants rustling
A thousand birds bristling
Through greening leaves bustling
Breeze-blown branches whistling

The pounding air rises
As every living eye is
Set
As the orb of the skies is
Hoisted above
The singing forest.


The author's comments:
I went for consonant rhymes in this poem. After I finished writing I noticed that all four classical elements have a stanza devoted to them.
