Water Being Cleaned
The ram died high
On the snow covered
Mountain, when the thaw
Of spring came, it's
Decaying body
Contaminates
The melting snow
The waters flow
Brings death in grip
The farther
It traveled
The less germs
And death
Were there
Clean
(This is also a metaphor for sin. The farther we stay away from it the cleaner we stay. Of
course, we can repent but the results lingers.)
