PART ONE: POEMS ABOUT WATER

Water In Slovakia
Slovakia is lot of water, Water is for mum and father. Water is in pounds and rivers, In Slovakia arent seas and oceans. The longest river Vh is, It is longer than this line is. The biggest river is Dunaj, It is bigger than TV Funai.

Simona Hulaov (12 years old girl)

Water
Water is needed for alife, You cant say that it isnt modern. All the time you need it, Otherwise youre lost. You drink it and you want it, You like it and love it. You must have some water, must have every day.
Nastasia Kovov (12 years old girl)

Blue Planet
Fish in the ocean, fish in the tank, Icannot think, my mind is blank. Fish in the river, fish in the sea The Earth is dying, no one can see?!! Waves on the river are soft and sweet, if Danube dies, my heart will bleed. We can save the Earth, we can save water We have to do it, its our mother.
Alica Zagrapanov (12 years old girl)

Water
This is water. Drink it mother! Idrink water, This is super. Ihave acup, Of the pub. We have ice water, They have thirsty father.
Andrej Hla (12 years old boy)

About Water
Water is our life, Water is our salvation, Water is amiracle, Drinks it also my uncle. Idrink it every morning, Drinks it also my darling, In December or in May, Iuse it every day. Blue water is beautiful, Its in the sea and in the pool. Its for us all, Its just so!

Monika Kuerkov (15 years old girl)

Water
Water is abeautiful element, We use it every day, It is apart of our life, There would be no existence without it. It is every childs drink. We drink it when we play, Water limpid gold, Water life-giving liquid.
Matej Mder, Mat Lenghart (12 years old boys)

Poem About Water

Water is for drinking very, very good And Iam going to swimming in water very cold. Cold is very and it is not scary. Water is for drinking very, very good And water is for swimming very good too. You cant eat water but only drink. Water is for drinking very good.

Adam Mdry (11 years old boy)

The Best Is Water

Some water is important, For the blue Earth. We need water every day, In water we swim and play. Drop of water is more precious than crude oil, You are happy, Ihave joy. The water is the best drink, This is super, fireman extinguish everything. North or South, On the ocean sail aboat. Ilike in the water swim, This is beautiful dream. We like water, But no empty bottle.
Erik Doruinec (13 years old boy)

Water
Water is very important for the whole world. The animals drinks water, We pour harvest with water, We cant exist without water. We wash hands with water, We wash floor with water And of course, We shower with water.
Patrik Lukaovi, Filip Zelenay (12 and 15 years old boys)

Various animals, plants And organisms live in water. Water is in lakes, in rivers And in streams.

Water, Water
Water, water, water Idrink it from childhood. Water, water, sweet Tastes better than Apple. Water, water, clean Its crystal clean and healthy.

Kristna Vohntov (11 years old girl)

Water
One, two, three Water is here. Four, five, six Water is next to the beach. Seven, eight, nine, Water is also raining.

Kristna Vohntov (11 years old girl)

Without Water
Without water there isnt life. Without water there is nothing. Water come back, to us now.

Kristna Vohntov (11 years old girl)

Gift
Water is aprecious gift, Life without it cannot be... For mankind and for nature It has different forms... Rain, sea, ocean, Have great strength, Thank God, That we drink healthy water... Slovaks lets be happy That such the water we have. And other countries Lets help proudly...

Denisa Vranoviov (11 years old girl)

What Is Water?
What is water? Well still, Rain is water. Alot of drops fall from above, It will be only our water. Snow is still too simply water, But stiffen, clean and white. Waterfalls are our water, From rocks they are flowing.
Marcela Gaparoviov (11 years old girl)

Alica Zagrapanov

Mary was a poor girl who worked in a mill to feed her family. Miller was a greedy man who wanted to earn a lot of money so Mary had to work really hard.

You do not work hard enough! Now you have to go to the forest and find my lost sheep!

Mary was in the forest, when suddenly she heard someone calling for help. It was an old man, trapped in a hollow.

Mary was very kind and she helped the old man out.

The old man greatfully showed her a magic spring.

Mary drank some water and she really became strong. The water also helped to heal her parents. Since then, many people were coming to the spring when they were ill and the water helped them. They decided to call it The Iron Well

One day a greedy businessman decided to build a spa near the well and he was charging people for the water.

The well dried up and because of their greed, people lost the treasure for ever.

The Vh song
Matej Mder

A pilgrim goes under Krivan, he stumbles on the rocks. A back and hips are a lot of wavelets the young playful Vahswims in the Suns rays.

As a rakish child, he jumps a lot, then he passes quietly for a while and then on the plain where the river wants there he changes watercourses.

And as he runs down, grows wild in the beauty, he rolls rocks and tears banks , he wastes his power : "Who wants to fight with me?"

Villages crouch shyly what can poor people do? And what about lords? - Oho! They have enough so the rabid flow goes.

ABOUT A CROW AND A JUG OF WATER

Filip Zelenay

A weak crow was flying above the dry country looking for some water. Otherwise she would die with thirst.

Suddenly, she glimpsed something on the pile of stones. It was a small jug.

She looked inside the jug- and what a surprise! On the bottom of the jug, there was a little bit of water!

She put her head inside,but... Her beak was too short to reach the water.

Suddenly, an idea came to her mind: she put the pieces of stones into the jug.

As she was putting the stones there, the water level increased. Finally she could drink it easily.
