Little Drops of Water






                Recitation Skills


          Little drops of water,

          Little grains of sand,

          Make the mighty ocean


          And the pleasant land.


          So the moments,


          Humble though they be,

          Make the mighty ages

          of eternity.



          Little deeds of kindness,

          Little words of love,

          Help to make Earth happy,


          Like the heaven above.
