This Magnificent Water

By Professor Michael Itungwa Shukrani
_______

Spread across the seas, here you are
Enough in Man, you serve him
In his food, you unceasingly sing a happy hymn
Admiring your benefits, our thanks are not far

O water! A liquid that wears a tint with pleasant renown
You shine and make us happy every day
As you decorate all our every stay
You deserve a gorgeous crown

The animals admire your prowess
Plants cheer your valorous features
You, who make us all happy creatures
And infect joy into our lives with largesse

As in you oxygen and hydrogen bond
So vital and joyful are you to us all
With you, our happiness looks smart on long haul
May life remain a plump feast tastier than almond

The factories ask for you to come
That you form their products preciously
And that consumers are seduced continuously
May their work successes sweetly hum

All dirt, you expel
All ugliness, you erase
That our cleanliness cannot but amaze
And that our enjoyment can excel

In our juices, you are present
Within our soft drinks, you lie
For you cherish our health as credible ally
May our happiness be constantly senescent
