It Keep's Us Alive Poem by The Original Tom Maxwell

Water has carved, around, over, and through the largest mountains, with it's might, it is needed to keep all living creatures alive,
for with out it, we would shrivel out of sight.

Everyone has complained, about water on a rainy day,
although it can sure relax, our body,
as we wash the dirt away.

Water way's move food and cargo, around the globe every day,
it's used for fishing, swimming,
and many other activities, when we play.

It's used to produce electricity, and cool engines,
across our land, we take it for granted,
until there is a shortage, on a hot day, in the desert sand.

During the cold season, water freezes,
we can ice skate, or slip, and fall on our back,
if a fire gets out of hand, water is usually, the first line of attack.

Always remember, when water is flowing,
it is one of the strongest forces, known to man,
also so gentle, as a splash, we only feel the temperature,
as it falls on our hand.
