Today is one of the horrible days of my life. It is peak summer and I worked very hard and did my best to provide quality shade for many by accepting a lot of heat. I do not know what reasons, but summers are growing stronger and harder each time. I heard people say that it is because of many factors like global warming, etc. Whatever it is, I’m finding it very difficult to live this way. 100 of my leaves died today and will be falling down soon. I don’t know how long will I be able to survive with the remaining leaves. With a lot of pain, I had to fast and pray to God asking him to save me. I’m getting dried and dried more each passing hour and passing day. I was so thirsty today. I wish someone helped me but no one showed up. I am so sad.
Answer:
Explanation:
I am a large tree with many branches and green leaves, emerging from my thick trunk. Normally, my roots draw water from the ground to satisfy my thirst. But this summer, the level of groundwater has gone down and my roots are facing difficulty in reaching that water.
Moreover, more water is evaporating through my leaves due to excess heat, for which my leaves are turning brownish and dry. I am afraid that all my leaves may dry up, if this extreme heat persists for a long time.
