Sparkling Drop of Water

The sun shone,

All was still.

The sun made one sparkle in one drop

Before it fell

Down into the mossy green

That was the grass.

It lay there silent

A long time.

The sun went, the moon came,

Again one sparkle in the grass!

Day then night, sun then moon,

Year in, year out,

So it went on with its life

For several years

Until at last it was never heard of

Any more.
