Definition: A small quantity of liquid, just large enough to hold its own round shape via surface tension, especially one that falls from a source of liquid.
Alright class, settle down and letโs take a look,
At this word โdrops,โ a little linguistic hook!
The dictionary's given us quite the clue,
About what 'drops' really mean for me and you.
It says, โA small quantity of liquid, you see,โ
โJust big enough to hold its own shape, happily!โ
And notice this part, itโs important to know,
โVia surface tension," helping them flow!
Think of raindrops falling from the sky,
Or puddles forming when clouds drift by.
They hold their roundness, a tiny delight,
Because of that tension, shining so bright.
It's like a little bubble, held with grace,
A small liquid 'dropโ in its rightful place!
So โdropsโ means just a bit โ not too much you see,
Holding its form, delightfully free!
