The Droplet

Very quiet and devoid of will
The ocean stretches, is lying still

A sudden gust tears on the crest
A tiny droplet separates from the rest

O what a turmoil, it's finally free.
Free to roam the world, be on a spree.

But before another thought can emerge
The droplet falls back, meets the end of its urge

Can't you see, you're that drop in the sea
When all your strength and your youth do depart
Innocence and peace restart
