Magpie 60. In Numerology, 6+0=6 (teacher).

Science 6.0

Raindrop Fairy came, you know,
With little mounds of H2O.
Surface tension,
(Dare I mention),
Stops them going with the flow!

    ... me thinks it's the tension under the surface that stops the flow!

    I don't like raindrop fairies when they cause floods but I love this piece of writing.
