Water. Joy

Ulhitiya waters


Cool Clear Water

Many a time i walked
A well beaten track
In my search for water
Cool clear water
It was hot and dry
The sun hung high
When i searched for water
Cool clear water
Mischief', the blue healer and i
Searched low and high
So we could taste the water
Cool clear water
The creek we found
Low in the ground
We bathed ourselves with water
Life giving water
Cool clear water
Death will come with the setting sun
Without the taste of water
Cool clear life giving water
Cool clear water
When life began and did arise
From the embrace of water
Cool clear water
Cool clear water

Allan James Saywell (2007)
