Pleads of natureA Poem by Najam Us SaherHumans are not only cruel to their own race but also towards naturePLEADS OF NATURE Look closely, Dews of a plant are tears pleading us to keep them alive. Observe, The sun burning furiously over us. Behold, The sight of rain washing our shelter. Be afraid, Of the thunder as it rages upon us. It is now that nature screams for attention, But we turn a blind eye, Only after we lose it, We will realise its value. The soil lost its essence Because of the sediments of pollutants on it. Greenery lost its enchantment, Fog turned to smog, We built houses among the trees Now we plant them among the buildings We unroot plants to establish a plant We call ourselves humans? Show some humanity towards nature then. It takes months for a sapling to grow into a tree, But less than an hour to chop it down, Think for once how you'd feel, When a thing you value most would be gone. Humans- creator of all the problems on earth, Forgot that we belong to it We, the masters of nations, Are also are the destructors of planet. We want to be remembered to set a mark, We will surely be remembered to cause harm Not only towards our fellow beings, But also towards nature. One day, we will look back realise How better it was without us. © 2017 Najam Us SaherReviews
