Ode to a Glass of Cold Water

Liam Santos

Ode to cold water The soul, it soothes Its bite makes you falter It’s better than juice. The glass has precipitation It runs down the sides! And in anticipation You let loose a sigh.

The cold hurts your handWhile the ice is cracking, It brings you to a land Where the sun is lacking. When you take a sip The cold refreshes your taste buds, You’re going to flip And absolutely go nuts.

It flows through history: The dinosaurs slurped, Leonardo Da Vinci Drank it while he worked. Ice water is divineIt hydrates your system, Forget soda and wine You’re not going to miss them.
