Water



Splash!
When I go into the sea,
I feel tiny air bubbles rushing up.
Their power is over; it has gone to another element.
An element that cannot break apart in the
Strongest wind,
An element that can quench even the
Hottest fire,
An element that can break apart the
Strongest earth,
An element that has no more, only equal.
Life cannot go on without it,
But we have endless supply..
But we pay for that supply.
In other words, we pay for life.
But other people,
They are forced to waste their life for life.
To spend their whole day to get water.
But in vain,
For dozens die a day from disease and drought.
But there is a cure.
A cure that has been possible for years but never
Has been done.
Until. Now.
A group of people have realized the true weapon;
Not for war,
But for water.
Not for ourselves,
But for life.
Not for fame,
But for earth.
Not for money,
Not for mankind,
Not for anything or anyone
But for all,
In other words;
Nature.
