Splendor in the Past

I saw this nest of raindrops in the grass and wondered what the chaos would look like from below.
Reminds me of playing parachute in preschool.
We'd lift the multicolored tarp over our heads then sit underneath, tucking its edges under our chubby legs and marveling at the rainbow-colored cocoon we had created.  

But our toddler-sized bottoms couldn't keep the air in, and our evanescent little world would inevitably deflate.
So we'd scamper out from under the sagging fabric, throw up our arms, and start the process all over again.
