Consciousness Saturday where the inspiration is βwaterβ.
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
Thereβs nothing quite like aqua
Town pool for kids with no dough
Yachts in the ocean all for show
Haves and have nots, I just donβt know
Where’s the happy medium?
Whatβs 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
Donβt 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
