Beautiful, Chelsea. Such a perfect description and I loved this line

"perhaps the tiniest, satisfied sigh"

The human perspective, so perfect for when so many of us don't have enough water now...

This is beautiful Chelsea. What an amazing journey your poem takes us on, centered initially on the inch worm then radiating outwards until it brings us back in, again to finding our own center, our "owan ascendance." You are a magnificent writer. Thank you!
