Marvel of the universe

Bubbly as a fountain
Or stream on a mountain,
You are a wonder as you rise and fall.


Swift as a river
Or deep as an ocean,
You are a force to reckon all through your journey.


Spring, pool, lake or pond
River, sea, ocean as you sound,
you are a marvel to behold.


Deep in the well or
Rain from the sky,
You dwell on Earth and heavens so high


A envelope to Earth
Or a drink from a cup
Water, you are the elixir of this life
