Water 💦..... everywhere, don't let it not a 💧 drop to drink

The Farmer is Anna Data.

This is the day

தை 1

Day to thank

Lords

Surya-Chandra,

Annadata.

Annadatha Sukhibhava.

For all the grains

The whole world consumes,

For every morsel

The world owes a

Great debt,

Indeed,

Is eternally indebted.

Oh,

Should our gratitude extend?

Extend to what?

To the 

Ever drying,

Dwindling 

H2o,

The 💦 water.

The human abode 

Expands horizontally,

This despite,

Even as birth rate shrinking,

IVF centres mushrooming,

Mortality rate decreasing.

Horizontal expansion 

Is Bhima-like,

Highly hungry,

Devouring more

Water bodies -

Tanks, ponds, 

Why,

Even rivers.

Avvayar was right,

Very prophetic

When she said,

அளவுக்கு மிஞ்சினால் 

அமிர்தமும் நஞ்சு.

The more,

The more poisonous.

It aptly holds good 

Even for over agri production.

That demands 

More water,

The scarce commodity.

What's the remedy?

JJ was right 

When she mandated

Rain ☔ water 💦 harvesting.

In many a semi-urban,

Rural construction,

It's still an eyewash.

There's no verification 

In letter and spirit 

Sense.

If you save a drop,

A tiny drop,

Not waste even a

Single drop,

Mind closing a leaking

Tap,

You do a yeoman service 

Not jus to yourself 

But to

Posterity.

நீர்இன்று அமையாது உலகெனின் யார்யார்க்கும்

வான்இன்று அமையாது ஒழுக்கு.
