Imagine If It Were Otherwise

An egg sinks in fresh water                                                                                                                               While it floats in salty water

A ship sinks in fresh water                                                                                                                                  While it floats in salty water

For the density of salty water is more                                                                                                               That helps ship to sail among the shore!

With a boat, treasures of sea, you can explore                                                                                                   Links for commerce, simply you can implore

Imagine if it were otherwise,                                                                                                                                     As ships can’t be used, as wise!

Sea water, you can’t drink                                                                                                                                       But provides useful trade link

If need be, salty water is easy to convert                                                                                                              But if sea water were pure, it is impossible to revert

Realize the fact, to thank the nature!                                                                                                                 Also the grace of His nature!!
