Water is very simple

Yet from it stems incredible properties 

It is so easy to picture because there is nothing like it

Many things flourish from it that are beautiful and profound

Listening to rain lays a comforting heavy blanket over you

Jumping into a cold lake forces an overwhelming tense shock 

Drinking a cup of water when you're thirsty Is an amazing pleasure

Water muffles everything around you from its sensational aura

Swimming is flying

Without constraint to the floor or being upright

You can let your body guide you anywhere 

Imagine the path you want to take

Feel the breezy current floating by

While watching the fish fly by like birds

If people experience something commonly, they find it mundane

Such a sad, unfortunate truth

Until your eyes are opened

And you learn to value the smallest, simplest of things
