Evaporated Molecules

 audio

 evaporated molecules
from liquid to a mist
drifting in the atmosphere
by sunlight they've been kissed

excitedly they've disappeared
to reappear when high
above the ground in places we're
slowly moving by

below the air in motion
as gravity attracts
water from the ocean
now in the sky which lacks

the power to simply drift away
never to return
molecules of mist can't stay
as for the earth they yearn -

evaporated molecules
clouds up in the sky
imagination's liquid fuels
re-forming, drifting by

above within the atmosphere
creating images in mind
raining down wherever we're
slipping out of time...
