Something Needs

Something needs
The little wheel barrow
That carries off the needless dirt
Away from the man-made hollow.

And something needs
The tiny rain-drop
That platters down the red-tiled roof
To bring life to the planted crop.

Something needs
The newly-grown crocus
That struggles through the winter soil
And colors the whitened canvas.

So tell me

Who needs me?

"Something Needs" was written as a rhetorical question towards myself. Who needs me? The winning answer: I need me.
