Poem: One, Two, Three, Too Many

One drop
begins a storm.
One spark
gives birth to a forest fire.
All it takes
is one.

Two hearts
entwined in love
Two pieces
lock into place
But it needs
just two.

Three lines
make a triangle
Three stones
form a pyramid.
For its base
needs three.

Too many
cooks in the kitchen.
Too many
hands in the pot
to ruin a good thing
involves too many.
