Rain Forming Clouds Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Plants are wilting as the earth is thirsty.
Animals are dying with the earth, thirsty.
People would soon wage war over water.
The thirst of the earth is the end of life.

Water hydrates living organisms.
It softens, coagulates or dissolves things.
Water comes next to air for survival.
Without it, the heat will soar and scorch lives.

No good that three fourth surface is water.
Only three percent of it is portable.
Life evolved from waterand is made of it.
Plants and animals are water by three fourth.

Water consumed for the meat production
Is at two thousand litters per pound flesh.
Turn vegetarian and cut meat production.
Divert land and fund to vegetation.

Water cannot be made and the rain is the source.
Raising vegetation on all bare land
And stopping burning fuel for energy
Can be conducive to rain forming clouds.
