Go With The Flow

Is this water pure and sweet?
Will it quench your thirst?
And, where did it start its feat?
Who will drink it first?
Should it have been left untouched?
And just left be, to flow?
Or chemical and bottled up?
And put on shelves for show?
Tread carefully, do not pollute!
Heed the signs of warning!
Consider what you could refute!
A brand new hope is dawning!
Rejoice, the river flowing swift. Celebrate this natural gift.
