WATER FOR POOR COUNTRIES
June 4,2019
Folklore by Chan Mongol
Like oil pipelines, carry ocean water
Soak cities, countries in dry summer
Governments are to give the new birth
To bath, to drink, to cool the earth.
In both Winter and Summer seasons
Outcry for water in Asia and Africa nations
I ask, why a government and why a country
When their citizens are dirty and thirsty!
Shepherds are to take care cows cattle
Governments are to take care of people
Lion portion of budget must be used for water
Water will ensure economy and agriculture.
The first priority to build pipelines from ocean
Water distribution by pipelines can be done.
What else is there for their development lately
Their water pipelines can change them totally!
