The air we breathe is sweet and clear <br />Used every day of every year <br />Pure and fresh, up to the sky <br />Expanding out, forever high <br /> <br />Nourished by Earth's plants and meat <br />Depending on the food we eat <br />To keep us strong, and keep us fit <br />Our lives, indeed require it <br /> <br />Water runs from mountain brooks <br />Seeping out from rocks and nooks <br />Trickling, bubbling, Nature's spout <br />Refreshing us, inside and out <br /> <br />Necessities to stay alive <br />We need them, crave them to survive <br />All the creatures, flowers, trees <br />Require elements, as these <br /> <br />If one small peice was pulled away <br />The world would surely die that day <br />But, trust me, Love, this much is true; <br />I'd sooner perish without you<br /><br />Mandi June<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/necessities-3/
