SHE

She wanted to speak,

But realizing the conditions around the situation seemed bleak,

Although the cries of her mother were unbearable to her ears,

On seeing the river being caged by the cruel dam, She'd thought to herself,

How could 'She' escape being a creek!

She wanted to try,

But observing the despair around, her hopes seemed a hopeless cry,

Although the pain of her mother were intolerable to her eyes,

On seeing the tree itself being hammered by the greedy world,

She'd thought to herself,

How could 'She' survive being a branch so weak and dry!
