Clear, fresh and cool,
In large quantities, it's cruel.
With a refreshing taste,
it leads thirst to waste,
and fills up children's pools.

The author's comments:
For those of you who don't know what a Limerick is, it's a whimsical 5 line poem that has the first, second, and fifth lines rhyme, while the third and fourth rhyme with each other. I made this Limerick a while back for creative writing, love it or hate it, your choice.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN

I really like this. It tells so much about water... without actually telling about water. (: Great job!
