It used to rain all time

as October and November 

were months of monsoon rains

bringing cheer in no time.

It is dry these days

very hot and drought prone

much against the routine

inducting famine all through the days.

With no rains in the yard

and oppressing heat in the field

there is a disproportionate feed

similar to the Great Famine  .

The break of routine is not new

as it occurred even in the past

with the duration shortly cast

while now it stretches in a long queue

With the extension of dry spell all year round

none could survive with ease

as the scarcity mounts in  leaps and bounds

filtering a not so pleasant experience all around.

How to combat Nature”s fury?

It has stubbornly gone ahead

denying the rightful rains at proper time

Well, it is perhaps its anger cast in a bury.
