the fallen leaf

It is a high time now that we rise above our greed and pay attention to the warnings given by nature. we need to treasure and take care of it. here is a conversation between a person and a tree.

There is this tree

Old, gloomy and it’s branches set free

In middle of the street

While I was standing and admiring it,

He waved his hand to me

And said,” glee! At last someone

Who notices me”

I saw he was miserable

I asked out of curiosity

“ what happened?”

He replied

“ oh ! to me?! Nothing”

“Why are you depressed?”

“Actually I’m suppressed”

“Who did that to you?”

“Think yourself

The place where you reside

Is the graveyard

Where my family died”

“Sorry! I did not know”

“It is not pity

That you should show”

“Tell me! How can I help?”

“Introspect yourself

Am I the one in need?”

I reflected for few seconds

And said,

“You are right indeed”

Now how do you feel?”

“I think we are in a dire need”

“Need of what my dear?”

“Some brains I guess”

“But you’ve got one right”

“Then how did we end up like this”

“Just lack of few things”

What are those”

“Be aware!

Use resources properly

Control your greed

And you will definitely succeed”

 

“Thank you ugh…”

It suddenly turned back normal

Fell from the above

The prettiest leaf

And at least this time

With a lesson I did leave……

Quite like the conversation with the wise tree.
Now that we're all indoors, nature sure does look amazing on the outside.
This will surely be a wakeup call for the world.

[Aradhana]

I also hope that people will come to their sense at least now. Due to less pollution the nature outside is truly awesome. I guess it was beautiful since time unknown it was only us who did not have time to admire it and now that we have let us not harm it and treasure it. This is I guess only 20% of the efforts to bring nature back to its original form. Thanks for your words, Paul Bell.
