The once snaking gurgling monster Time-defying, ever-flowing oldster Is licked near-clean by the quiet drought Her diminution wrought distraught Lain betwixt her hunger stricken arboreal hosts Emaciated, unattractively scaring akin ghosts Crawling slowly to die somewhere undismayed Petitions unsaid and intercessories unprayed The tranquil of the fresh breath of Nyamindi waterway Is taken by the acrid gusts of aquatic decay As her remnants lovers slowly but surely fry In the fierce fast-falling fire from the sky.

FIRE FROM THE SKY.
The once snaking gurgling monster Time-defying, ever-flowing oldster Is licked near-clean by the quiet drought Her diminution wrought distraught Lain betwixt her hunger stricken arboreal hosts Emaciated, unattractively scaring akin ghosts Crawling slowly to die somewhere undismayed Petitions unsaid and intercessories unprayed The tranquil of the fresh breath of Nyamindi waterway Is taken by the acrid gusts of aquatic decay As her remnants lovers slowly but surely fry In the fierce fast-falling fire from the sky.
Due to the vast encroachment of forests by human settlement, the rivers that are permanent are drying up in the prolonged dry spells. Preserve the Forests Preserve life
