Not even a drop in the ocean

96 14 13
                                    

A single droplet

Hits the ocean,

Creating ripples

In the momentary calm;

Disturbing the water 

Until you take a step back

And observe

The bigger picture.

The ripples from

That droplet

Are lost to the world.

From afar

It is the waves

That carry meaning;

That make a difference 

And affect the movement 

Of the water.

Suddenly the droplet

Bears no significance

And is just a droplet of water amongst many others.

Not even a drop in the ocean,

For nobody notices.
