Sonnet 16 Water and Earth

Water can be calming until it floods the earth with its purpose It becomes quite unpleasant when the water overextends its intent Is it the moon that is making the water have more intent with its purpose Let it be known that the water cares for the earth to an extent The water cares for its blood and claims to care for the earth, and wants to nourish its seed Well, the seed does not want the water with salt Do not concoct a form of a pleasant and tasty Meade It would prefer to have the sweet nectar of a malt The earth is the foundation of life, and the water should cool it down from the internal and external fires The earth does not want to be overrun with water and all of its creatures of life A partnership until they enter the pyres The earth wants to have the blessing of a wife Each day, the earthquakes and the water go out Or does the water come out like a spout
