MY LOVE TO WATER
Water is
clear and transparente
como tú.
Tú eres como agua purificada.
Not polluted, sin pena y dolor.
Cada vez que te veo para
mirar how clean, clear and
fresh you really are,
I see my reflection.
Water, tú eres mi yo
and I love to give you
affection.

MY LOVE TO WATER
Water is
clear and transparent
like you.
You are like purified water.
Not polluted, without sorrow or pain.
Every time I see you to
see how clean, clear and
fresh you really are,
I see my reflection.
Water, you are my I
and I love to give you
affection.
Sebastian Vargas 13, Burien
