Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Free verse

Cold Water

Water that is cold
Is so refreshing
Water from the tap
Is so refreshing
Add some ice cubes
The water is cold
On a humid day 

Adding lemon juice
Then add some ice
To the cold water
Makes  a nice cool drink
Stir in some ice tea
 Makes a lovely drink
Or lime in water

Enjoy ice water
Just the way it is 
It will quenches  the thirst 
Cold water anywhere
Will  quench the thirst
Drinking cold water is good
Good for the body

Andrea Dietrich August 6, 2026 at 7:30 PM I am not a lover of water and I don't trust what comes out of the tap these days. But this is a really nice definition of cold water. Have you ever had water from a well? In the old days we would bicycle in the country and get really hot. That was the most refreshing water ever! Darlene De Beaulieu August 13, 2026 at 10:22 AM Hello Andrea, Yes i have had water from a well when growing up. My uncle lived in the country and had a well. yes that is refreshing water.
