Sweet Water: Ode to water

Ode To Water

Oh water, water
Everyone gives you a different name
You have the same message for all
You give life and hope
You give us smiles in droplets
Oh water, water
You give willingly when someone is suffering
You give peace without ceasing
You are kind and you are calm
You are clear and you are clean
But lovely even when you’re boggy
Oh water, water
I have seen you waving at me
I have seen you bubbling in a bottle
Who can live without you?
And who could be against you?
Oh water, water
Your love gets in every home
Everyone needs you like a child
Needs its mum in its first fragile days
You are my friend when I’m wordless
You sooth me when I’m tired
