Flowers are withering away 
alongside the plants. 
Rivers, rivulets, streams
and ponds dried up.
Unable to withstand 
the red hot sun
the verdant landscape has already vanished. 
And the fields get burnt by blazing sun 
and they develop cracks. 
Scarcity of grass and water forces the farmers 
to dump their cattle at the abattoir.
The farmers unable to repay the loans 
they availed of from banks and shylocks 
attain solace by the kisses of death.
The melting glaciers cause the water levels
of the oceans to rise threatening the 
submergence of island nations below sea-levels. 
With the famines like sharks and whales 
reaching out to swallow us, the victims - the Homosapiens.
One day our Mother 
Planet – the Earth 
will turn into an alien planet 
with none remaining alive…..
