• Poems are considered one of the best ways to express our thoughts but some poems have deeper meaning which is not easy to understand.
• Here I would like to mention about one such line from the poem ‘The Rime of Ancient Mariner’ which was so thought provoking.
• When I was in class 9th, a line from this poem touched me. It was ‘water, water everywhere, nor any drop to drink.
• It indicates importance of water.
• Our teacher revealed some facts regarding water level declining day by day.
• The major reason behind this situation is ignoring the circumstances.
• We all are well aware about how water is essential for human life and it is difficult to imagine life without water. Still we do not care much about water.
• Through this line author conveyed a message that if we will not utilize water wisely soon there will be a situation that we might have plenty water in oceans but drinking water will not be available.
• After listening to the views of my teacher, I decided to save water. I discussed about this even with my parents.
• They too explained me about how to save water and how vital it is for us to save water not only for us but also for future generation.
• Lastly, I would say saving water is important and significance of line of the poem cannot be neglected.
