An Ode to my Green Friends

When I rise, you become my sink.
Your warm water assists me in shaving the stubble that has grown in the night.
When I return home from school, you become my shower.
Your cool waters revitalize me.
When I have grimy dishes, you become my dishwasher.
One for soap, and one for rinse, you don't mind which.
When my clothes reek, you become my laundromat.
You charge no quarter, not even a penny for each use.
When it rains, you become my water tap.
Diligently hoarding water for me to drink.
Oh green buckets, where would I be without you?
America.

Two Green Friends
