One Drop

One drop of water
Just one small drop
Created an expanding ring
That went on and did not stop

Your life can be like that 
Drop, for good or evil
One drop ever expanding
Until the very end of time

An awesome thing to think about Sara. I think maybe some have forgotten the major meanings in simple sayings. But God hath chosen the simple things to confound the wisdom of the wise. But speak on sister, I am listened! A few Sheep is enough. Sincerely, Love, Moses
