A Drought has come

The beautiful trees,bushes and vines have withered.The few leaves left on trees have lost their green color.Cattle,goats and other animals are roaming about looking  for something to eat and drink.Their skins have sunk in to their bones.They look like walking skeletons.The chirping birds have lost their joy and hidden in their nests and holes.The environment is still.But,their has ghostly  shadows.People have lost  their freshness and their skins have dried and they have lost their smiles.All of them are begging for water and they walk long distances carrying pots for searching water.No smoking from cooking fires as earlier.Flowers are not fresh even in the morning.The drought has affected every nook and corner.Rain is the only hope in every mind.
