Ode To Water

Oh water, oh water,
You have many uses, so necessary.
I am refreshed by you when the season becomes hotter.
Without you, life is dreary.

To me you are most wondrous,
With a taste as fresh as a newly plucked peach.
Your rain can be most thunderous,
Like waves crashing on a beach.

Unlike the scorching, humid sun,
I am refreshingly cooled by you.
When swimming in a pool for fun,
I know what I can do.

Water you are my most trusted friend,
Extremely clear and nice.
Your uses will never end,
Even once you turn to ice.
