Water is a lovely thing

Water is a lovely thing Dark. and ripply in a spring,
Black and quiet in a pool in a puddle brown and cool, in a river blue and gay, in a raindrop silver-grey, in a fountain white; in a dewdrop crystal bright; ina pitcher frosty-cold; in a bubble pink and gold; in a happy summer sea; just as green as green can be, in a rainbow far unfurled, Every colour in the world. all the year, from spring to spring, water is the loveliest thing.
