Sustenance

parched throat,
dry tongue;
seems like
beckoning death.
body quivers,
mind shivers,
soul craves
with single
mindedness

crystal clear,
pure, flowing,
unscented;
absolute bliss,
trickling slowly
down the throat
satiates body,
satisfies soul.
just one single
sip of water,
sustains existence.

As we have water problems in summer, this came into mind. Nothing to brag home about- just stating of facts in simple verse.
