The rice fields are parched! They have become hard as stones. The pagey are wilting. Some have dried up. Without water, they die. It has been several weeks now since the last heavy rainfall.
"Ampetang, Father!" Some parishioners would tell me. How hot the weather has become.
"Anggapo ni uran! Amagaan laray dalin. Agka mi ni akatanem!" Farmers come to tell that they have not yet tilled the field nor planted yet.
No rains!
When will the rains come?
