In the soothing morning light,

water mumbles,

a soft hymn of revival,

its clear welcome,

a gentle ointment for the fatigued,

the dried-out heart,

and the exhausted soul.

πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦

It leaks from summits,

flowing like mirth,

inviting us to drink

from Mother Earth’s well,

to bathe in the breeze

that rinses out

the remains of the past.

🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

In every droplet, a tale-

of rivers modeling valleys,

of rain feeding fields,

of the sea’s large embrace,

protecting dreams and secrets,

every ocean wave a prompt

of our shared thirst.

πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦

It waltzes in the glass,

a liquid word of honour,

healing forgotten souls,

mending the cracks,

in our frangible existence,

snuffing out the fires of famine,

smoothing out the edges of woe.

🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

With every gulp,

it fixes the delicate threads,

weaving energy into our bones,

stirring life from its depths,

stimulating the beat of the heart,

a polyphony of rebirth,

in the quiet of its flow.

πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦

So let us treasure this souvenir,

this natural elixir of life,

the humble H20,

a consecrated ship,

a speculum reflecting,

the simplest candor

to be alive is to quaff,

to seek comfort,

in the embrace of the planet.

🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
