Drop a pebble in the water,
And its ripple reach out far,
And the sunbeams dancing on them,
May reflect them to a star,
Give a smile to someone passing,
Thereby making ones morning glad,
It may greet you in the evening,
When your own heart maybe sad,
Do a deed of simple kindness,
Though its end you may not see,
It may reach, like widening ripple,
Down a long eternity.
