WATER DROPLETS

 

 

WATER DROPLETS 

 

Water droplets

Fall gently with a soothing sound

Water droplets

Join together in rivulets

Soaking and staining sun-baked ground

Starting their journey ocean bound

Water droplets.

 

 

 

 

 

The Rondelet is a French form consisting of a single septet

with two rhymes and one refrain: AbAabbA. The capital

letters are the refrains, or repeats. The refrain is written in

4 syllables and the other lines are each 8 syllables long.
