Death of Water -- By Babbu Kamboj...
The butterfly and I have a strong relationship because of the beauty for the colors she has in her wings. I was standing in my home gallery and were watching downside, some children are playing and running behind the butterfly. My daughter was sleeping at that time otherwise I take her downstairs for this enjoyment. Some pigeon were eating their daily food having different colors on their wings as well. Some of them are pure white indicating the peace and some are indicating the true color of nature.
It was the day of colors and the children who were running behind the butterfly to catch her were also fully covered with the colors. Some one out of it has green color hair, someone has red. One of child face was fully red and he has gun in his hand. All these children has effect of movies and they were shouting on each other like a hero and villain. Some of them were having bucket filled with colored water to use in their guns. All were looking colorful and applying color on face of each other. Few of them were not allowing the passer bys without playing with them. The butterflies might be thinking that are these new faces which were behind them are new butterflies.
Few hours I keep on watching them and my wife also joined me in this moment. By this time many more joins these children and those were elders. They start applying colors on each other face and start enjoying. We both were standing and watching all these and my daughter also awaked up to see this colored land. All were dancing, applying colors and having fun. Soon the introduction of water into this party comes. Initially it looks like a WOW but was the water use correct? If I ask this question to people many will contradict me but.. .
This thought comes in my mind and I feel very bad. They start throwing water like anything, they bring big pipe which we use in fire brigades and start throwing water like a Niagara fall. Thousand of gallon of water mixed with colors and went into the sewerage. They were enjoying but they forget that thousands of people in this world is dying every day because of thrust. Every day we heard water level is going down. The summer just started and many area of city start facing water shortage. Money can purchase anything in their view but from where we will buy water if no water available. People talk about, save water but when comes the reality people throw. For around 45 minutes the big pipe keep passing the thousand gallon of water. Mix of water and color on the land becomes in red color and I was thinking that this is the death of thousand liters of water. Finally the water tank become empty but they want more water for enjoyment. I was still standing in the gallery and watching all this by thinking of water death. I was sad but helpless, only can think nothing else.
We have many resources of natural color, apply and use it but what is the need to kill water like this. I talked about this with many of my friends but all were saying only one thing, why I am only worried about water, blaa blaa blaa…. But I think why to mix water with color if you have many beautiful colors to enjoy in nature. Some of the butterflies start flying towards me as I think they know what I am thinking. All the children went to their home and still the water with red color flowing on the roads. All the butterflies and pigeons went to their new destination and I close my door after seeing all this and moved down to show my daughter the red water.
