Andrea Dietrich Poet Kyrielle

God's Water

Water’s pure when it is flowing
down the mountain ever growing.
Streams may long rivers turn to be
God's water blesses you and me.

Shallow or deep, the rivers run.
Folks find great ways to have such fun.
They swim, fish, boat, or water-ski!
God's water blesses you and me.

Rivers run their course; by a shore,
we may find water is even more.
Who doesn’t love a big blue sea?
God's water blesses you and me.

Bottled, from a faucet or spring,
comes H2O. It’s everything!
We should care for it, but DO we?
God's water blesses you and me.

Terrell Martin August 13, 2022 at 1:37 PM Water...one of those many blessings we too often take for granted until there's not enough of it around. Nicely written, thought provoking poem Andrea. With apologies for not visiting sooner. Cheers, Terry

Joe Maverick August 13, 2022 at 1:35 PM Great Kyrelli Andrea the form flows and surges Like the water that meanders and falls, by shore or Glen On mooreland and fen, we need it, it blesses Enfolds and caresses, by it plants and Grasses grow, orchards bloom And flowers show.'

Rico Leffanta August 11, 2022 at 11:22 AM No one seems concerned about the gallons of fresh water dumped on forest fires which wash the top soil away, exposing a barren world to our grandchildren! Aloha!

Victor Buhagiar August 11, 2022 at 12:57 AM What would we do without water? God is kind to us, but as you remarked, are we kind to Him? Hugs.
