a drop in the bucket
Kristan Shepherd 1959 (Los Angeless)
A drop of rain, a drop of time
a drop of anything suits me fine
a drop will land where ever it will
Not for a purpose or maybe it will
No the path of a drop falls to its place
like a long long journey to the uultimate fate
Yet in a bucket it does land, only to finish the final plan
Care for plants, or animals too, it's from God just for you.
