36. WritingWrite a poem about what water means to you and your community.Here is an example of a poem about water. Read it to your friend. Ask them toshut their eyes when they listen.Water…Falling and falling from the skySpilling from the roofsLaying in pools over the roadAlive with mosquito larvaeWater.Hanging in the airMaking it hard to walk, hard to work.The season of eternal rainIt splashes and rushes and fallsAnd then it’s dryThe clouds have all goneAnd the skyShines pure, blue and empty.In the gardens the plants writheIn the glare of the sunThe earth turns to dustAnd it seems as if rain has never fallen,Never has it blessedThis cracked, bare soilCrying out for water.Think about and then answer these questions on the poem:i Do you like the poem? Why? Why not?ii What did you see in your head when you listened?37.
