Grass Was Green Poem by Meena Somasundaram

The grass was green
looking fresh and nice
now it has turned yellow
appearing dry and withered.

The garden around the cities
gleamed with green and shine
now they are haggard and worn out
reflecting a thirst for water.

The land is going without water
as there is no sufficient rain
the deficiency grows high
as the years turn dry.

The earth is fastly becoming a desert
with no water to drink and use
the deplete is horrendous
as without water none could happen.

The people would starve for water
the land could grow no grains
drought would be the scene prevalent
famine would come into existence.

The threat is so imminent and dangerous
if not the weather improves
with copious rainfall in the anvil
there would be hunger and death all through.
