Gone are the days,
when it rained for weeks,
yet no water clogged streets
Here come the days,
where it showers for hours,
and people run for covers
Gone are the days,
where wells had water,
even in peak summer
Here come the days,
where rivers run dry,
soon after monsoons fly
Gone are the days,
when lake was a dam
harvesting every dime
Here come the days,
where lake becomes layout,
and flooding is the fallout
Gone are the days,
when trees slowed the flow
making soil glow
Here come the days,
where forest becomes resort,
sliding land below
Gone are the days,
happiness after rain
farmers making gain
Here come the days,
drought follows flood,
farming good as dead
Gone are the days,
when humans had a need
which nature did feed
Here come the days,
where humans full of greed
hence disasters do breed
Don’t blame the weather,
for we made it wither
Do nurture nature,
for a better future
Bring back all those days
rejuvenate all those lakes
reforest the land
no other magic wand
