Do you shed a tear,
When a tree is cut?
Do you light a candle,
When oil spill kills the duck?
Do you place a wreath,
When the dynamite blasts the rocks?
Can you hear HER pleas?
Have we stopped raping HER,
In spite of the awareness?
How can you mourn the loss
Of a human life…
When you can’t mourn the loss
Of your abode?
SHE can take no more,
SHE rebels and protests,
As SHE is the nature
And the balance;
A creator and a destroyer;
SHE is not mute…
SHE plans and SHE schemes
And takes HER revenge
When you least expect it!!
