The Wilds

A drought rules with free reign   
Even over the most fertile plain 
All is sacrificed to the terrain  
Any clarity you cannot obtain 
Resources you cannot sustain 
The desert wont be influenced to change 
Yearning will be shared with pain 
Days take from you what little remains 
Every grain of sand wants the sky to rain 
To saturate herself, the Earth won't refrain
from draining the blood out of your veins

I see the realization that our planet is suffering from lack of care. This poem is beautifully crafted to show how it suffers.
