Poem: A little drop of water

A poem I wrote for Hunter's Speech Festival last year:
What kind of world would it be if water didn't exist naturally? We would have cracked lips and hands and Summers without any lemonade stands. Our hair would be caked with grease and grime and our toilets would be---oh never mind. We wouldn't have oceans with all of those fish Or water fountains to make that one special wish. There wouldn't be lakes to ever go swimming We would just lie in a dirt hole- and that's just the beginning!
There wouldn't be sleet or hail or rain Not even the Snowman would be the same. Imagine what mysteries we could uncover- the mermaid, the Loch Ness, maybe another. But what about the penguins and the Eskimos? What could they do if their toes weren't froze? No snow globes, no Icee's, no white water rapids, no movies like Jaws or Christopher Columbus. I've come to the conclusion that's better than none Water is more than just plain, old fun. A little drop of water falling from the sky becomes a part of something greater than just you or I. A little drop of water small as can be can save a life eventually.
