Water

WATER Water, o water! So necessary you are That A world without you is lifeless As ancient as you are You are never tired Of our demands You are the source of life. Father of all nutrients The number one universal solvent So useful you are Useful in the kitchen Useful in the bathroom Where not Provider of warmth You are the source of life Eyitayo Lizzy Motif: Nature
