    I want to flow with a drop of water,
    An infant river
    Sliding down the window pane
    Blissfully aimless.

    Very nicely done.  My suggestion for you would be to look up the poetic techniques of line break and enjambment.  Your poem would work so well if you incorporated some of these techniques.  For example:  “I want to flow with a drop / of water an infant / river sliding down / the window pane blissfully/ aimless.”  I know I asked for a two line poem but this poem is asking for line breaks that help it reach its full potential.  I will, either way, consider it for featuring, in the next couple of weeks, on my Instagram page.  Thank you so much for sharing and – well done!  Your friend in poetry, Susan
