Dewdrop


Someone told me I was a dewdrop-
Hanging off a twig.
I looked at it- It sparkled;
Did a lovely dancing jig.

Someone told me I was a dewdrop,
I heard "you’re just for now.
The shine will last til’ twilight,
Or til’ winds hit the bough."

Someone told me I was a dewdrop,
I saw that I was small,
They told me I was a dewdrop,
And watched me drip and fall.


Someone told me I was a dewdrop
I fell, but landed here.
I may be just a dewdrop
But at least I’m not a tear.
