Have and Have Not: An Ovi SoC

Written for Ronovan Writes Ovi Poetry Challenge #53
where the inspiration is โ€˜motivationโ€™ and for Stream of
Consciousness Saturday
where the inspiration is โ€˜waterโ€™.
Here is my Ovi Stream of Consciousness.

Backyard hose to gulp a quick drink
Babies getting washed in the sink
Garden sprinklers splash flowers pink
The things we do with water

Inner-city hydrants flushing
Fountains in the park are gushing
Free Kool-Aid gets the kids rushing
Thereโ€™s nothing quite like aqua

Town pool for kids with no dough
Yachts in the ocean all for show
Haves and have nots, I just donโ€™t know
Where’s the happy medium?

Whatโ€™s your motivation, man?
Sell water in bottle or can
Not your style to give a damn
You just want to make a buck

All throats get parched and dry
Donโ€™t let the little children cry
Paws on hot pavement start to fry
We need some heat relief

Water, water everywhere
Pour a glass and show you care
Help all living things and share
From sea to shining sea
