Back to When "Rains were a Delight"

IndiBlogger Badge
Something you love, need and crave
Yet, when in excess you dread
People in "God's own country"
Hoped they had seen the last
Of nature's fury in 2018

Yet in the very next year, she returned
To scare and cause havoc to many lives
Particularly in 7 districts that include
Wayanad and Malappuram.

Is this to be an annual affair?
Oh if only, one could take clock back
Get back to the mood, character and
Form of rains erstwhile
Times when man respected nature
Did not manipulate her at will...

Listen powers that be
Act before it's too late!
Stop encroachment of water bodies
Rivers, forests, ecologically fragile lands
Arrest mindless mining, construction sprees
Be realistic, accept reality
Stop listening to lobby of "Climate change denial" !

Else, forget about future generations not forgiving you
There wouldn't even be the 'present generation'
who would have long died along with you!
