Sun scorched barren ground <br />Like spreading lines on shattered glass <br />Cracks split wide the arid terrain <br />Thirsting for much needed water <br /> <br />What once was full of fish and plants? <br />Is now a dry useless river bed <br />Skeletal remains of life rot in the sun <br />Animals thirst for a dropp of life’s liquid <br /> <br />Garden full of beauty now withers <br />Limp and stringy vines droop, barren <br />Birds gather round to pick the last seeds <br />Soon move on as death has come to all <br /> <br />Children cry as hunger invades tiny bellies <br />Nature is in control nothing can be done <br />Warnings long ignored the evil winds blow <br />It bares the name of Global Warming<br /><br />T.James Becker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/evil-wind/
