A sip of water heals the body. A glass of water grows the flower.

If water washes the world, wickedness disappears.

Written by Şerifenur Kaya(11-D

Kui vihma sajab, On päike pilve taga

Üksinda peidus.

See luuletus on Niisama värvitu kui

On puhas vesi.

If it is raining, the sun is hidden

alone behind the cloud.

This poem is as colourless as clear water.

Written by Hale (George-Mario)

Lained loksuvad Vastu mõtterannajoont.

Mu pea on tühi.

The waves splash against the shore of thoughts.

My head is empty.

Written by (Oskar Samue)

Lill järve ääres Ootab päikesekiirt ja

Mekib veetilka.

Mereveel tähed Peegelduvad ja poolkuu

Naeratab vastu.

Vetikad vee sees Tantsivad lõbusasti –

Muret neil pole.

Järves suur kala Ootab väikest ussikest –

Kõht on tühi tal.

A flower besides the lake is waiting for the sunshine and tastes the water drop.

Reflection of stars on the seawater while cerscent is smiling back.

Seaweeds in the water are dancing amusingly - no worries they have.

A big fish in the lake is waiting for a small worm -

hungrily is feeling it.

Written by (Carmen)

Vesi jões tõusis, uputades hinge,

härmatis on maas.

Water in the river rose and swamped the soul,

hoarfrost is on the ground.

Written by (Jenny-Lotta)
