Prized Liquid
Water was the one thing
that so filled the earth
since its foundation.
It roofed the fascia of the deep
from hoary time to the dividing.
The ubiquity of this liquid
during ancient times
was nothing of remark.

Man came into the scene,
the story began to
steadily alter and
this change didn’t have
a unique term till now.
The earth’s climate has
been altering to this day.
Experts call it ‘Climate change’.

In a city called Bamenda,
water dearth has rocked
households leaving even
the opulent in grave angst.
In another town, Magdar,
water’s affluence smashed
homes with oodles of fatalities.

Water is precious?
Yes, it is treasurable!
However enormous risk
is involved once it’s ubiquitous
Yet absence of it can’t be endured.
