Robert Verdon, #17, The Living Water

I am the living water,

said Jesus to the Samaritan

woman at the well,

the air, the storm, the sea,

the little children blowing bubbles,

live through me,

give me a drink:

sounds like you’ve had a few

already, she winked,

and they both laughed;

I have, he admitted,

but after a draught

of what I had,

honest to God,

you’ll never be thirsty again.
