An Ode to Water

by | Aug 18, 2025 | Poetry

Such an important source for life
on this planet we call Earth
The sounds it creates
Drip-drip-drip
Splashy seas,
Running rivers,
Slurp-slurp-slurp.

God himself created you
And loves you.
Water, the source for early civilizations
so clean, the animals would bathe with you
A way to stop chaos
From an erupting fire from Hell
To the fire from a misplaced pot.

The water moving forward
Making travel entirely possible
And the discovery of the new world long ago
All thanks to the water.

The taste of water
Changeless, freshness
In proportions
Large or small.
Drinking the water
The sip
Leaves a feeling of satisfaction
A feeling not possible by the brain itself
That fresh glass of water
The taste of life
And the taste of the planet.

Water,
A miracle
Splattered on the planet
By God himself.
