A Scarcity In Surplus! Poem by Ramesh T A

Seeing hottest days, it looks as a great contrast to see heaviest rains
Coming every night due to SW Monsoon effect and also depression
Slowly forming in the sea before blowing as storm over the shores!

By this way Nature seems to compensate the loss of rain in Summer
With heaviest rains now and then to fill up the blanks left by Monsoon
By means of cyclones and storms over the sea shore areas and lands!

Despite all these things still shortage of water in rivers and lakes put
All farmers in desperation, if they don't get enough water after doing
The work of cultivation of crops for next growth of crops by irrigation!

Sharing of river water between States brings politics into play putting
One and all in trouble between the States incurring loss of business
And revenue to both the Govts. needing national solution to end it!

If dams are built over rivers surrounding a riparian State, how can
Agricultural work go on there making all suffer in scarcity in surplus!
