The Valence
The generosity
And the greatness of the sea
And its strength and depth
One can see
If small drops of the rain
Shower and fall into it
Whatever, whenever
The sea takes that
And absorbs into it
With no objections
Magnifies and upgrades
every drop of the rain
To becoming the sea itself
As I am the sea of love
Every drop of love
Becomes the sea
If it falls on me.
