Obviate ... Drops

So, today is my 1,000th post! What started out as an exercise and experiment, has turned into a habit and an obsession. The question is, do I continue? Right now, I don't think I can stop. So here goes one more:

Today's word is "obviate" ... OB-vee-eyt ... to anticipate and prevent or eliminate (difficulties, disadvantages, etc.) by effective measures; render unnecessary.

Oh, and today is national limerick day😁

Drops
There once was a smart man from Spain,
Who always got caught in the rain,
To obviate a great soaking,
His head he was poking
Under umbrellas to protect his brain.
