The Irony Of Water Scarcity In Surplus On The Earth! Poem by Ramesh T A

Don't spend money like water, they say in the past;
Now, we have to spend money even for water sure;
Water is everywhere in the sea, rivers and lakes;
Yet, pure drinking water is scarce due to pollution!

So, all are planning to refine sea water for drinking;
Also, by science and technology some are trying to
Get water out of moisture in the air in the atmosphere;
As this goes on so, time will come, there won't be water!

Realizing water status and condition, it has to be protected
And preserved well with sparing use to manage problem;
Best thing will be, it is better to keep pollution of water out
So that water problem in the future can be avoided well...!

During flood time, even with money, there was no water one
Could get to drink staying safe on the terrace of buildings..;
This is the irony of water scarcity in surplus on this Earth of
All natural resources exploited foolishly leading to bankruptcy!
