Due drops
(Myra Viola Wilds)
Within the due drops in the morning,
Shake their little diamond heads,
Sparkling, flashing, ever moving,
From their silent little beds.
See the grass! Each blade is brightened,
Roots are strengthened by their stay;
Like the dew drops, let us scatter
Gems of love along the way.
