Ode to Little Drops of Water

Ode to Little Drops of Water

O, little drops of water
Upon a bright green leaf,
Why do you judge a cautioned thought
Or unsettle a moment's relief?

You promised me an honest love
And a little TLC,
But all I met were false pretenses
And a chronic habit to deceive.

O, little drops of water
Upon a bright green leaf,
Why did you lie and send me hate,
And cause me so much grief?

I realized your promises
Were too bold for you to bear,
So I leave you now in all good haste
Without a moment to spare.

O, little drops of water
Upon a bright green leaf,
Before you judge a cautioned thought,
Please read this ode so brief.
