That empty river was filled with water,
Running water never stagnant to collect litter,
Clean and clear to see the treasures stored,
Heavy pebbles, the quick fish on the soften rocks,

You have emphatically brought home the issues related to how the life supporting rivers have been made to die of slow poisoning caused by a variety of factors. Thanks for voicing the concern............10 (if I could cast 11)
Environmental issues need to be highlighted and I am glad to be reading this immensely sensitive poem
Very true. Policies should be made to accommodate the interests of all people. This seems to be a problem in many countries especially the third world. Thank you for sharing.
AR@Alapha Romeo, I do not have to add a pinch of salt to your outburst, as you speak the truth in the crudest manner. India has to change a lot and the notorious policies should be amended to accommodate all people from all states to be treated equal. Our rich people are too rich to control the politics of our country.
Nuclear planta will help attackam Tamilam from neighbouring Srilanka(invested by China) planning everytime nuissance beating poor Keralites-fishermen.Their Jesuit white converters who came from Syria and Portugal will not help.Also a centurys sorrow govt.For tears lack of water-Tamil Nadu can drink Keralas God own country coconut water very Vedic and hygienic and in exchange rather deionize some sea water plants for Kerala.Desalinations should actively be also controlled for normal human pH level.So drinking water problem solved.Now is budget for the plant which is always Parliament problem of throwing Hawai-chappals, microphones, chairs tomorrow when the law bans then they will open themselves become nude and fight naked kustis--Rivers are not problems-its the people around riverbeds who thinks it to be Baap ka maal throwing rubbish chemicals all sorts thinking their holy stools are gonna de-effect them.Bad manam-totalam baddah-shoot them all and see if their blood spills enough for the sewerage of rivers helping Indian drinkability since 3500 years...
Sad that it has changed from what your memory recalls! It sounded so beautiful.
TAR, Tamil Nadu, one of the state of India is sharing this river with its neighboring state. As the water is controlled in the dams, if there is no sufficient rain and not enough water to release, water would not be released into the river, which is the only source of water for agriculture down stream, where Tamil nadu is located. As we have no water in the river, one of seasonal paddy crop, is halted and our farmers are suffering. 2. Nuclear plant is another issue and it is built on one of the shores of Tamil nadu's village. Please google River Kaveri and Koodangkulam Nuclear plant and you will come across other useful information regarding this poem. I sincerely thank you for the comments and the inquiry.
This the description of the nature...... so nice....
