WHAT’S THE BEST DRINK OF ALL?

Working in the fields, stopping
To rest in the shade.
Their son four, asked his Dad.
 
“What’s the Best Drink of All?”
 
“Son, I don’t know.
Is it coffee? Is it tea?”
 
“No! No! No!”
 
“Is it pop? Is it Kool-Aid? Is it milk?”
 
“No! No! No!”
 
“Son, I don’t know. What is the best drink of all?”
 
“Water!—Daddy—Water!”
