Beneath the sky, aloof from men
I stand here in nature’s abode
Heard of it, spoke of it and now I saw heaven
Tolerance it has, of such mankind’s code
The code of depletion of mighty nature
Of animals, birds and tiny creatures
Who are unable to withstand their stature
Here I stand in nature’s pleasant abode
That, which is home to species plethora
Obscure and at times vague is its way
Yet, it has a light deep within that shows us the way
Abusive nature is that of mankind
Speechless earth stays giving just a glance
"What a fool you are" is what it says
***Wrote this when I was passing through Malshej Ghat at a waterfall in Maharashtra
pata hai sumtimes in life we realize dat only thing left wid us is nature... no expectations...no demands....
ReplyDeleteYes it just watches all of us...and is so beautiful
DeleteQuite impressive, a wave of thoughts in just a pass-by. Quite true that we tend to take nature for granted and not value it for the resources it provides us :)
ReplyDeleteKeep posting :)
