Every drop counts
Water oh Water!
We need to preserve you, my dear…
Look that water flowing from the RO pipe,
Oh!
I can clean and wash my porch with it too.
I just washed veggies can I reuse it too,
Yes yes!
It’s good for plants and gardens too.
Boiled the pasta and rice for dinner,
No worry
The water is good for soil so just pour.
It’s raining so heavily today,
Go fetch the bucket
Just line up the tubs and drums too
Use it in a washing machine or even car wash, hey you!
You know what?
I practiced few things…
Oh lovely, so tell it to all other beings…
I reduced showers,
Oh, you did a great job.
I even repaired the leaks,
Oh, you need a pat on the back.
I water plants only in the morning
Good, they don’t need it in noon nap or dinner walk
I remember to turn off the flowing tap
Good that you don’t let it flow freely…
Coz you still don’t feel needy
Every drop oh, every drop
Preserve it like a pearl in the ocean vast
A small step A small effort
Can give water for years
Its the lifeline
Its the main resource
Let’s save it
So we don’t remorse.

A very important and practical theme. It is essential for all of us to start preserve water for our future generations. The small steps which you are taking will take us a long way… We should also start actively teaching our kids about the importance and urgency of saving water and how we can start doing that from our homes…
