I am water.
Soft enough to cleanse you,
But powerful enough to drown you.
And deep enough to save you.

If you are in a drought,
so parched you cannot think,
Never forget that I am rain.

But if you take me for granted,
Remember I am also a tsunami.

If you are pleasant and kind,
I am a gentle shower
Or slowly lapping waves.

But tread lightly with me
Because you must remember,
Sometimes I am a hurricane.
