A low rumble shook the pinkish walls
As light entered the cave
A gust of wind was sucked in
While a droplet, small and brave
Slid about on the mushy ground
Bracing itself for the flight
It held its breath and closed its eyes
Against the harsh, bright light
"Here we go," the droplet thought
Excitement rushed through its mind
"I wonder where on earth I'll land...
I wonder what I'll find!"
And with no warning whatsoever
A great force pushed and heaved
The droplet was shoved off the ground
Feeling afraid, but yet relieved
However, the worst had yet to come
As the droplet would soon discover
It started falling at a rapid speed
Before it had time to recover!
"ARRRGHHH!" the droplet yelled
As it plummeted through the air
With other droplets which fell like rain
Screaming in fear and despair
But there you find our little droplet
Being carried by a soft breeze
And that's the story of how a droplet
Survived Jess's almighty sneeze!

Hope you enjoyed this fun rhyme that was inspired by my recent bouts of sneezing and coughing. Currently teary-eyed and breathing hot air, but how could I sleep peacefully if I didn't jot down this silly comic of a poem? *winks*
