WaterA Poem by Sam Freeland![]() for life![]() Water we have consumed no longer visible to the eye Keeps our cells living and without it they die Continuous loss from the skin no matter what you do Drying out the skin cells and keeping you cool too If the cells couldn't replicate you would soon feel very weak Nothing would protect the body and everything would leak Since thirst is a brain's response we know it is water that we need Should we ever get too little the blood will clot instead of bleed Plain water is the best drink but its flavor is kind of bland Adding a little lime can help even though its not grand If it is made any sweeter there will be problems ahead We will habitually choose the sweeter beverages instead The sucrose sweeteners are a poison to our health They make people more obese and bring bottlers more wealth Obesity in many of the young occurs before they are aware They join half the population you would think we didn't care Thirst and a sweet tooth habit shortens the life of every cell Mainly because of the way candy and sweet drinks sell 2.03.2012 © 2012 Sam Freeland |
