Description of the beauty of water
The daughter of King Lear Cordelia said that she loves her father like salt, because you immediately notice the lack of salt on the table or in the dish. But she would try to live at least a day or two without water.
Water ... What could be simpler and more mysterious at the same time ...
When we hear the question of how many forms water has, the answer comes first: three (liquid, gaseous and solid). The poet would answer differently.
Water ... It is so different: it flows calmly across the plains, now it rushes violently from the hills and high rocky mountains. It can drip rare tears from the firmament of heaven or pour a solid wall like a bucket. You can talk and sing endlessly about the beauty of water:
- "Water, water, water all around ..." (Edward Gil).
- "The sea, the sea, the world is bottomless ..." (Yuri Antonov).
- “We will live with you in a small hut on the banks of a very quiet river” (Vyacheslav Butusov).
Water gives life, but it can take it away with a terrible flood, sweeping away everything that is weaker than it on its hellish path.
The story of the beauty of water
Look, what a cute little brook. He is naughty and funny. Its small waves behave like adults. And how the sun sparkles in droplets of water, turning their precious gems, shining with all the colors of the rainbow. The banks carefully surround the brook with a blanket of moss.
I wonder what he thinks about when alone? Maybe about his mother river, big and deep, about his father-ocean or sister-lakes. Or he waits for the children to return from school and arrange a regatta of paper boats. How cool it is that at least sometimes you can feel big and important.
