 The scorched roots of grass sprawling wildly on the soil; were greedy to drink monstrous sized dew drops, 

 
The car lying dilapidated and burnt in the garage; were greedy to drink gallons of golden petrol, 
 
The eye gruesomely dry after the day's work; were greedy to drink a bottle of tears, 
 
The scientist working ingeniously all round the clock; was greedy to drink testubes bubbling with brilliant dyes, 
 
The bees buzzing irascibly around the rose; were greedy to drink its sweet honey, 
 
The cluster of bedraggled and squalid hair; was to drink jar's of oil, 
 
The unruly stubble protruding from the arid cheek; was greedy to drink a tumbler full of after shave cologne, 
 
The pen tremendously weary after embossing a million lines of literature; was greedy to drink sapphire ink, 
 
The armory of teeth which was decayed and yellow; were greedy to drink sparkling white toothpaste, 
 
The infinite kilometers of blistering desert land; were greedy to drink an ocean full of saliva, 
 
The cat philandering furtively on the streets; was greedy to drink a cupfull of milk, 
 
The mosquitoes feasting on the rotten pile of vegetables; were greedy to drink pure blood, 
 
The pores of skin chapped and abysmally dry in winter; were greedy to drink a river of sweat, 
 
The prisoner's ears lying in solitary confinement for years; were greedy to drink the ecstatic melody in sound, 
 
The penguins wandering around in dazzling sunlight; were greedy to drink frozen ice, 
The thorny cactus sprouting in abundance from the jagged terrain; were greedy to drink a vase full of sweet water, 
 
The lips severely agonized and gloomy; were greedy to drink a fountain of  uninhibited passion, 
 
The walls of the century old grave; were greedy to drink thick coats of rich paint, 
 
The unfathomably deep crevices in the valley; were greedy to drink strident echo's, 
 
The twin pair of nostrils in every man; were greedy to drink a tunnel full of fresh air, 
 
The matchstick lying soggy and frigid in a pond of water; was greedy to drink hostile flames, 
 
And my heart palpitating at lightening speeds; was greedy to drink immortal love; drown in it for eternity; while drinking the same.
