The MELANCHOLY PAGES OF NATURE !
- ECHOES OF A PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
Among the goldens lines of history,
Lied that tale of a mother,
So green, So calm,
So rich, so Pure,
Admired by her beauty and grace,
Was an empire once saintly.
From verdant fields, where wildflowers bloom,
To majestic forests, where creatures find room,
Are skies so blue, where birds soar high,
Rivers and oceans, their waters so pure,
Filled this tapestry of colors,
So vibrant, So serene.
Like the rivers through the eaves,
Flew time without a sign,
Fading these lush memories into past,
Was a world so dark and ghastly,
O ! my beautiful nature ! with face so pale, so dull,
Is living now , A life of burning hell.
But what has changed ?
What has turned her smile so dull ?
What has caused her skin to crease ?
Who so indeed was so selfish and cruel,
So puffed up with blinded eyes,
To cause her this misery of pain ?
Oh ! humans she points at you,
You and only you, with greedy minds,
With lust and desire, you’ve turned so blind,
Your quest for more,
More and More,
Led her to this state of decay,
Ocean are polluted, skies so gray,
Forest are chopped, no habitats remain,
Air’s so toxic, Ozones have holes,
Skies are empty, fields so scarce,
Not a sign of rainbow nor a shine,
See what you’ve made of this once wondrous world.
Oh dear friends ! Listen to the call !
Awaken, open your eyes wide,
With love and care, and all your might
Preserve what's left, halt the rising tide.
Recycle, reduce, and learn to sustain,
For the future generations, a world to regain.
For every beast, ever flower’s worth,
For all generation - big and small
Let’s be unified as one,
To restore her beauty and bounty,
Plant more trees and embrace renewal,
For a greener life, let’s build for her a sacred jewel !
