Water



Water, oh water, so pure and clear,
You quench our thirst and wash away our fear.
From the oceans deep to the rivers wide,
You flow and nourish, a constant guide.

You bring life to all, from the smallest seed,
To the mightiest tree, you are the key.
You give us fish to feed our soul,
And waves to ride, a surfer's goal.

Your beauty is unmatched, a shimmering sight,
As you reflect the sun's warm light.
You dance and sparkle, a joy to behold,
A precious gem, more valuable than gold.

But in your power lies a fearsome force,
A raging torrent, a deadly source.
You can destroy with a single blow,
A reminder of your strength and flow.

Water, oh water, we cannot survive,
Without your gift, we would not thrive.
So let us cherish and protect you well,
For in your embrace, we shall always dwell
