RIPPLES

Drop a stone in the water, 

In a moment it is gone,

But there are still one hundred ripples circling on and on and on.

Say a unkind word this moment,

In a moment it is gone,

But there are still one hundred ripples circling on and on and on.

Say a word of cheer and splendor,

In a moment it is gone,

But there are still one hundred ripples circling on and on and on.
