A drop of water

billions and billions of drops
exist in the sea
but only one drop…is a “black sheep”
she did always complain.
…………………………..
“so tight in the sea
so crowded
I am tired of the movement
of waves on the surface,
I am scared of darkness and high pressure
at the depth.
I hate storms
they throw me like
peas against the wall.
in such a huge crowd
there is no place for individualism
and it is impossible
to develop one’s personality.”
……………………………..
she did complain again and again
finally other drops are upset
have thrown her out,
unfortunately
on rough and stony shore
she hurt her sides
She is bleeding heavily
hungry and thirsty,
in bright sunlight
soon evaporated to half.
fortunately miracle happened
she reached the river
and with the current
she came back to the sea…
now… she is happiest drop in the sea.
