Water Cycle

waterfalls cascade and splash
into pools where ions dash
through the air, the atmosphere
into the breath of all those near

liquid luscious streams then flow
down both quickly and too slow
gravity's relentless pull
to a sea that's always full
 
raging rivers slowing down
reeds in meadows all around
birds and insects buzz and flap
flickers going tap tap tap

on and on the water goes
passing fields with rows and rows
different types of crops in flower
moving water has great power

generating sylvan bliss
lowland woodland's are not missed
spreading wider as it nears
the destination of rain's tears

ocean mother, father too
call their children, rivers who
once were raindrops falling down
returning now, they've come around
