W - A - T - ER

by Scott C. Johnson


W - A - T - ER
the greatest, purest drink by far
three ice cubes and a red-striped straw
sip sip sip sip sip sip....ahh!

Go to the kitchen when you thirst
Ask for a tall cup, ask for it first
What should you do next, what shall it be?
Three ice cubes! 1, 2 , 3.

Ice cubes are slippery, and they're cold
Drop them into the cup you hold
Ask mom to rinse them, rinse them well
Unwashed ice cubes might have a smell!

On to the fun part, this is so neat
Pick out a tall straw for you to keep
Now place the tall straw into the cup
Almost done now, don't give up.

Turn on the faucet. Down comes the drink
Out of the faucet, splats in the sink
Check that it's cold and check that it's fresh
Old warm water is not the best.

Clean cool water pours in the cup
Watch as the ice cubes swirl 'n rise up
Turn off the faucet, this part is best
Drink the cold water. Ahh...refreshed!

W - A - T - ER
the greatest, purest drink by far
three ice cubes and a red-striped straw
sip sip sip sip sip sip....ahh!
