Poetry: Water

by Susana Berryman

Created on: May 21, 2009

Water, water, where art thou?

Just enought to wet the towel.

Pray for rain to fill the well

Use scented soap to kill the smell.

An ocean full, not a drop to drink.

Salt water fills the kitchen sink.

We'd like to know

that the grass

we're mowing

Is ahead of the algae

in the toilet tank growing.

Take our time in the tub soaking

Lke frogs after a rain we'd be croaking

It won't be long

The pipe line is coming

Then we can start replacing the plumbing.
