It starts with coffee then it spins out of control
My thirst has taken a hold only one sip is never enough
It don't matter if it is Kool Aid or ice tea you will regret inviting me
I am Thirsty can't you see, my thirst is ravenous
You might think my bladder is cavernous


I will drink all the Hot Chocolate in sight, believe me do not doubt
I move on to Lemonade, In a large amount, sorry that I drank the whole pitcher, I was just so thirsty
My eyes have seen soda, that is a sparkling delight, I'm sorry that I lost all control, the soda just tasted so good
I am still thirsty , I ask you what is left, "You tell me just water"
I say that is fine; I think to myself as thirsty as I am good thing it is not wine.
I drink the water it tastes good when I am thirsty
I need to caution you my friends, If the lake or river near you suddenly disappears it could be because of me being Thirsty
I wrote this thinking about how my friends have teased me about my thirst.
