Salt Water

poetry

Ours is a water world. Our planet's surface is 71% ocean, and we live our lives on islands in that great sea. Our planet should be called Ocean, not Earth. Our planet should be called Salt Water.

Salt water is mildly antiseptic and can be used to help clean and heal wounds. Salts and water are essential to our bodies' functioning. Taking a small amount of salt water can have health benefits, but drinking too much is dangerous. Drinking salt water will make you lose more water than you gain. Consume salt water slowly and carefully if you must.
