Climate Refugees Poem by Francis Duggan

You will not find much signs of life where crops or grass can't grow
Where rain refuse to fall death comes painful and slow
The survivors become climate refugees
In camps where millions live in hopes for visas to Lands overseas
But in the camps many for years must stay
And can only daydream of places far away
Grow old and die in utter poverty
How sad and tragic for many life turns out to be
Circumstance of place of birth beyond us to explain
You will not find much signs of life in places starved of rain
Only insects crawl on the bare and sun baked ground
And no signs of life for miles and miles around
And the people who survived the famine weakened by hunger and disease
Live in the crowded camps of climate refugees.
