Survival
Sea level is dangerously rising
Nature is furious and uprising
With so much furor and anger
Earth planet is very much in danger
Are we playing with our fate?
Is awakening coming very late?
What we are trying to prove and discuss?
Why so much hesitation and fuss?
Whole mankind may disappear
Desert look on land may appear
Sea may swallow tiny islands
Tragedy not by nature but human hands
Lust, greed, murders form act of the day
We are amidst crisis and lost the way
Sea treasure is depleting very fast
No creatures may survive to last
Glaciers are melting at an alarming level
Dooms day is not far and about to spell
Draughts and floods are doing very well
Earth quake is routine and creating hell
Survival is limited object only for today
No matter who suffered for the very day?
Voice is muted and has limited say
Sink or perish altogether on destined day
Desert is witnessing heaviest snow fall
Rivers in spate and mountains call
Forests burn with all-round flame
What on earth we are doing for them?
Sky is invading with deadly emission
Gases are leaked but no admission
Talks go on for appointing commission
Anarchy prevails with lots of confusion
No one may heed to simple advice
Digging graves for burial or demise
Generations may be lost in mad race
Nothing may be left to hide the face
It is crucial that we must survive
Popular movement for efforts to revive
Let good counsel enter in their mind
world awaits clean and new order to find

Close the eyes
We may face onslaught and not survive
If no timely action is taken or efforts revived
Nature may not spare us for committed sin
We may have complete loss and situation no win
Glaciers are melting with sudden spate in rivers
Havoc, destruction loss of precious lives all over
Progress may be around but not to rejoice
No one can claim prosperity with single voice
Do we want compete disaster and annihilation
No fresh air but only poison for inhalation
Nature striking at will with deadly weapons
We watch helplessly ………………
We are polluting air with deadly gases
Ground water depleting with heavy access
No one seems to be worried and tense
We have gone berserk with loss of sense
We never heard of tsunami or typhoons before
So many natural calamities and disasters come to fore
Earth quakes and floods have become scene of the day
Nature may not spare us, making hell everyday
Do we need prosperity at cost of eco balance?
Can’t we see disasters without using lance?
Have we to wait for till last day to come?
Is it acceptable to mankind and always welcome?
We may have to close the eyes and prepare for worst
Who may bear brunt or disappear first?
Future generation may not forgive and forget
Let us build new concept before it is too late
Sea is loosing charm and creatures disappear
Land also not spared and heavily bears
Sky is already with full of aimless objects
Nothing will be left on earth but only rejects
Sea may rise with tidal waves and strike
Cities may be wiped out …………..
Earth may bear deserted look with no sign or trace
Future historians may write with loss of face

An untold misery
Sky is over cast and covered with clouds
Free journey from one end to another with sound
”Still we are not done” and ready to rain heavily
You must receive and welcome us happily
We are not guided now by four seasons
So many factors contributing with reasons
It is unwarranted change but we are helpless
We move and deplete the weight more or less
We are over shadowed by compelling reasons
All gaseous emissions have been forced on
It is playing havoc with all natural systems
Our flow on earth is spoiling roots and stems
It is causing concern and destruction
No one seems to be following the instructions
No one is immune from following the pattern
This should be biggest problem and concern
Any obstruction to nature’s law may cause
Unbearable losses with long spell or pause
It is choice between survival and deaths
Though you may be following with good faith
Any temporary obstruction is understandable
Mankind is very much aggressive and capable
Any play against nature may prove fatal and decisive
The perseverance of nature must be on high scale or massive
The land is giving in against natural holocaust
The earth shield is lost with continuous blasts
It is feared the earth may cave and will not last
The natural wealth is loosing very fast
The desert is witnessing unseasonable rain and hailstorms
As if nature is furious and seriously warns
No snowfall in enough quantity where it used to be in abundance
There is unusual scene without any precedence
Still time has not run out and enough time is there to address
There will be unimaginable tragedy and permanent duress
We are forewarned number of times in anticipation
Still it is not up to mark to protect the inhabitation
Unseasonable change may bring untold misery
We can do it as certain things are totally unnecessary
This adds to agony and natural calamities
It is at dangerous to protect the lives and entities
We are emitting poisonous gases
Untold diseases with innumerable cases
Not only earth is polluted but rivers as well
No one will be left for stories to tell
We are all gifted with mind to think
We must take steps before it sinks
We can minimize the hazardous level at least
Some of the steps must be included in the lists
It is noble cause
Benefited for nature’s use
We survive to sing nature’s glory
What else can be the best story?

Spare Us
It blinded me with almost brightness
There was nothing to suggest in its greatness
It was unique phenomenon and experience
It had clear message with its variance
The sky thundered with loud explosion
As if bombs were exploding with implosions
No sound can be heard but its impact felt
It was heating severely below the belt
I could guess some thing unnatural was in offing
May be in the form of some natural disasters
May be sky was to generate heavy radiation
Scorching heat to burn everything with suffocation
What was the indication of bright flash?
Was it the panic signal sent with rush?
There was use beating round the bush
One had to move fast with quick push
It reminded me of the warning and forecast
World was on the brink of disaster and extinction
No one can save it from the fury of the nature
Can this really happen with mankind In future?
Rivers in spate were at dangerous with current flow
Sea was raising its present level as if to swallow
Earth was cracking to daze everything to ground
I could hear the loud bang in bright flash with big sound
My cot was shaking with full vibration
I was in deep sleep with no sign of life as an indication
It was shout from all over that it is severe earth quake
Every one rushed to the open ground very quick(ly)
I was bolted from out side as others had made the way
Many jumped from high rise building without any say
Earth was shaking with vibration to destroy in seconds
I shouted for help but none could come including friends
It was spell of complete disaster with His approval
It had spell bound devastating effect on its arrival
Nothing was going right as it had played its role
Cry deaths and almost dead peace from soul
Many might have experienced such rude shock
It is sure that nothing can remain solid as rock
It has to fast disintegrate as never existed before
It is basic fact that has come to the fore
It is awakening call and truce signal from nature
All out efforts to be nature friendly and to secure
Possible alignment with nature and its environment
Some concrete move to prepare and seize the moments
Nature itself is not permanent in nature
It has so much to offers us for future
We may be playing with our own fate
Still nothing can be considered as early or late

An awakening for nature
How I could be nature hater?
I was to learn it little later
Life needed natural and mineral water
Nature was God’s lovely daughter
No one can be so cruel and harsh
How can we turn beautiful land into marsh?
Where will we go to clean our ills and wash?
Will it not be too late to realize and cash?
The ideas to uproot trees and diversion of rivers
Drying up of its bed and depriving the fervor
What madness we are allowing to nurture?
What best an we expect in future/
Nothing is going right from the beginning
Whole climate is about to witness worst spinning
Nothing can go well with complete provocation
It has disastrous beginning with clear indication
Glaciers are melting with result to spate in flow
Havocs all over and nothing can help us to grow
Can we not take simple resolve at least one tree to grow
As for mercy and genuine feeling with sincere vow
Nothing can stop us from facing the slaughter
We have everything in common to face the disaster
Earth’s inner bed is moving to cause a quake
When will we move sensible and keep awake?
Have we become mercenaries of all kind?
Don’t we see any good reason behind?
It is still not late to understand and find
We can judge the warning from the speed of wind
Many more tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanic eruption
Draughts, excess rain and atmospheric disruption
Still we venture on stalling the nature’s cycle
How can we create blockade in full circle
Nothing is safe with beautiful mother land
She has nothing good to offer on hand
We have hand cuffed her on all the sides
She has only way to counter with waves and tides
Lament not if that turns to be good prophesy
We may die with poisonous air and ask for mercy
Nothing will be left to survive with bare minimum
We got to be vigilant by not keeping silent or mum
We can’t afford to show the laziness or indifference
We got to draw the line with clear inference
If nature is kind enough then we will definitely survive
It has to be all about efforts to strengthen and revive
Let us loose our yoke on water, ground and atmosphere
We may then be from any future catastrophe or fear
If not so then be prepared for all consequences to bear
We may witness new calamities to throw us out of gear

Early warning
Are you not frightened by looking at this picture?
This is not for today but indication for coming future
Have we not deceived our mother earth and brought havoc?
Natural wealth is fast depleting and running out of stock
Tress can show displeasure by looking barren
Ponds can show it by going dry even
But it is very difficult to guess mentality of human being
What a level to lower and disasters to bring?
Nature gives an early warning for any of the consequences
Volcano may make its intent known as it is not by chance
Cyclone sends early warning with prior arrival rain and storms
Human mind acts with connivance and doesn’t even warn
We are facing natural wrath as cycle has completely changed
Sea level is rising fast with alarm and becomes mismanaged
River waters bring untold sufferings and add to the woes
This is how our misery is multiplying and goes
We face the world with two way deception
On one side we make drive for forestation
And on the other side allow for deforestation
Eco balance is thus disturbed and making way for destruction
Green forest land is set on fire
Human greed has expanded to acquire
All forest land for cultivation and use
Leaving behind suicidal notes for us to choose
Time is yet within our hands
We must think fresh change our trend
Nature must be preserved at any cost
Else everything on earth may be lost

Modern poetry
What do you witness in modern poetry?
Does it represent sentiments of any country?
Do fond actual spirit missing and has evaporated?
It seems mind is bogged down and perforated,
No reflection of nature, snow clad mountains in poems?
Not concrete views on subjects and lack proper themes,
Short size of lines and left to readers for views
Read out as Para or commentary in news
No curse or regret in words for any message
Be silent spectator and clear smooth way for passage
Our poetic soul has died long back,
We write artificially as if standing on jack,
We have completely lost faith in system around,
We are back to the square one nothing new is found
limitation in expression of ideas and are not found suitable or sound
People do not appreciate as it has lost the ground,
Has the level of writing gone up or we leg behind?
Does the nature has lost its charm and nothing new find
Forests are depleted and wild animals has lost cover
what is left in nature is simply to imagine over?
Ozone layer is depleting and glaciers are sliding
Air is completely polluted and we are minding
Rivers are added with affluent discharge,
there is health hazard and risk is looming large
What to write in modern poems?
Where is inspiration with good theme?
Who has the time to spare for nature?
We are concerned with only future
How come old themes are rich with heritage?
Why do they not fall under class vintage/
They still inspire us in our daily routine
Lot many ways to be explored and put in
How our ancestors could write great epics?
There were tragic events including comics
Every part so interwoven with delicate presentation
Still we prefer it to be put in our quotation
Love epics are down with limited object
Suicides and downing in river is the only subject
News papers are full of robbery and murders
Little we offer as solace and only murmur
Death as horrified subject is only to be covered
Its impact is only to be lowered
What else we can offer in present day of living?
We must go deep for analytical study with forced diving
What message we carry for the masses?
No one has to worry and make passes
we are the real voice for any uprising
Only passion should be aroused for rising
Still we have so much to offer
Subject same but opinions differ,
Message should be simple but has to be widely read
Mass appeal for love and peace but not hatred

Sharing The Earth
There's enough on this earth
Not enough for man's greed
Nature's resources have no dearth
But for us the ravaging breed!
Think we own we dominate
For the others we decide fate
We care little for their distress
The world is ours only our place!
Invading forests filling wastelands
God's design we spoil with our hands
Blissfully forgetting that for us to survive
The others sharing the planet must also thrive!

Haiti
Can we learn any lesson from Haiti?
Is it Almighty’s curse or pity?
Are we prepared to pay heavy price?
Will we not change and be very nice/
How many 9/11 or Haiti will take place/
Seems nature is in fury and in race
To wipe out complete out look or face
Not a single thread will be left to trace
We are digging our own grave
No solutions but putting front brave
Inviting troubles for unnatural acts
These are known and emerging facts
Earth is deprived of gases and becoming hollow
Creating vacuum which does not allow
Earth to retain its original solid structure
Burdening self with deep holes and fracture
Gas emission is alarmingly exceeding
Sky is loosing layer from shielding
Rivers are inspire and not receding
Air is polluted and diseases spreading
Many islands may disappear in times to come
Rise of sea level is matter of concern and not welcome
Pretty small things drive the population to starvation
It is not far that we may face soon complete annihilation
Palaces and buildings will come down like pack of cards
No warning signal or timely help can come forward
It will be over in no time or in split of seconds
We may rush for help but only to witness the wounds
Thousands have lost the lives and perished
Life is at stand still and almost finished
Chances for survival are simply diminished
Nature’s second onslaught may be accomplished
Are we to live under pressure and constant fear?
Consequences of cruel nature and burnt to bear
Eyes filled with agony and tears
No hope for future and deserted faces to wear
It is humanity call to rush to their aid
No lip words or hollow gestures to be paid
Show of solidarity and sympathy words to be said
Respect to dead and proper wreath to be laid
We can mourn the death and express sorrow
Build the foundation for better tomorrow
All sources to be used even if to borrow
Precautions and measures strictly to follow
Tragedies and incidences may soon be forgotten
We may run the show on same pattern
Nothing to learn from our past mistakes
Depleting complete sources as water from lakes
We must think seriously end playing with nature
We got to take steps to protect our bright future
Future generation may not pardon us for our crime
What are we going to give them for their time?

We are on loosing spree
Death is available totally free
We have destroyed the trees
We soon may be bending our knees
Time is not far off when there will be turn in atmosphere
We won’t find safe place to go anywhere
Where is the space to move here and there?
We are acting irresponsible and not fare
The nature is giving in to mad race
The natural wealth is loosing its face
There complete hollowness in earth’s belt
The consequences may be known later or felt
The earth is sliding and gradually and making way
The extraction of oil and coal has taken security away
The secret movement under the earth belt is causing worry
The day is not far off when we will feel compete sorry
There may be devastation all over
We are loosing shield and nice cover
The sky is over burdened with useless objects
There is no control over stupid and unreasonable acts
Tidal waves are rising to dangerous level
The rivers are in spate as bad sequel
The banks are threatened with complete destruction
It may swallow it anytime with dangerous inductions
What to think of sea, air or land?
We can’t blame it on unseen hand
The nature has always acted as friend
We are hell bent upon bringing an end
The end may not be easy and quick
We must stop playing the dirty tricks
The generation may be faced with dangerous diseases
It will be an appropriate reason to go down and cease

Tsunami and after
Why blame tsunami and disaster?
Can we feel only pity or bust in laughter?
We are worried only for damage and effect and not for actual cause
We have become so selfish and close the eyes with pause
We have remained mute to human slaughter
We have killed the nature and she has lost original color
No where it can be felt with its original form and shine
We have done immense damage to cause floods and famine
Almost big creatures in sea have become distinct
We are mercilessly killed without obeying instinct
God and nature help only those who fall in realistic line
Do everything that is in order and nothing push to sidelines
We witnessed greatest tragedy in mankind history
It caused lots of furor and with immense losses and worry
The nuclear disaster was witness with naked eye
No one can think of on similar lines and try
The danger is again looming large
How many more may have to perish, flee or remain at large
We have yet no clue how to cope with this man made folly
Let people not admit openly but we have to share it wholly
Let us exist with nature side by side
We can not neglect some of the facts and put aside
It is our survival and existence that is at stake
It is high time for us now to open eyes and remain awake

Hymn For a Lasting Peace
The world needs a lasting peace if man is to survive:
Let nation not fight nation,
Let race not conquer race,
Let the strong not commit invasion,
Let all men share Earth's grace.
Ban aggression of any kind,
Ban all arms production,
Ban man's violence against mankind,
Ban all forms of destruction.
It is for a lasting peace that man has got to strive.
The world needs a lasting peace if man is to survive:
To save the snow capped mountains,
To save the depths of the seas,
To save the springs and fountains,
To save the birds and the bees;
That farms and forests flourish,
That rivers and streams flow pure,
That fields give life and nourish,
That Earth's great seasons endure.
It is for a lasting peace that man has got to strive.
The world needs a lasting peace if man is to survive:
That man may walk upon Earth,
That he will find an open door,
That there be the rights of birth,
That man destroys not, be the law;
That each to his faith can hold,
That homes and gardens are safe,
That not a child dies in the cold,
That not a child is a hungry waif.
It is for a lasting peace that man has got to strive.
The world needs a lasting peace if man is to survive:
That Human Rights be for all men,
That every injustice should cease,
That Human Rights protects all men,
That all men can find perfect peace;
That there be but one brotherhood,
That the land, sea and sky be free,
That progress be for the common good,
That peace everlasting will be.
It is for a lasting peace that man has got to strive.

Should We Die
Millions watch helplessly towards sky
Humbly ask for what is their fault and why?
Shake head in disbelief and find no other way
Open sky is refuge and earth only place to lay
Is God openly punishing for our simple crime?
Have we become so unreasonable in course of time?
Have we alienated the nature from its present level?
Is it not in conformity with rule or the sequel?
Are we going to face natural fury every year?
Is there no one in this world who will land ears?
Why such horrible suffering for all the years to bear?
Why no one is coming forward to wipe our tears?
God, do you have different yardstick for punishment?
Why poor only face the annihilation and banishment?
Will no messiah come on earth and take our care?
Will we find no place on earth to stay or go nowhere?
We may continue to suffer and also languish
Rich may not face onslaught under any anguish
We may be buried live under debris and perish
Sea waves may raise banner simply us to finish
Tidal waves and typhoon may not spare us either
No courage or strength to face the storm and wither
It will cause devastation at unimaginable scale
No body would survive to narrate the horrible tale
We may face slaughter if not awakened to reality
Human race may become extinct with lack of humanity
Let us rise to the occasion and share tragedy and grief
Start from the stretch with opening of new leaf
We may not receive help in need of hour
It may be coming late with little down pour
We may feel hurt but term it as destiny
Having no moral strength to rise in mutiny
O, lord or creator! Can you treat us alike?
Why rich get preference and poor face dislike
Are we the only creature meant to be lost?
Why should it not stop with or without cost?

You Hear Nature's Voice
You hear Nature's voice in the river that ever flows on towards the sea
A voice destined to live forever that has lived for untold centuries
From the foothills of the high country it babbles downhill night and day
By groves and by ditches and hedgerows to saltwater it winds it's way.
You hear Nature's voice in her birdsong their music carrying in the breeze
The sounds that the freshening winds make rustling in the leaves of the trees
Some of the happier sounds of Nature though to Nature there's another side
When Nature she shouts out her anger all others from her seek a safe place to hide.
When Nature she grows very angry the fear of the World is in her cry
She shakes the Earth flattens great buildings she roars and her lightning flashes in the sky
She crackles when her forests burn leaving blackness and smoke everywhere
With the power of Nature in a fury none other can hope to compare.
You hear Nature's voice in all Seasons Winter, Spring and Summer and Fall
And you hear Nature's voice in the night-time when her nocturnal creatures do call
Nature's voice will live on forever 'tis something not destined to die
As Nature herself does not have a time span as such are for mortals such as I.

Mother earth is crying
Mother earth is crying
The way man is treating
Water in scarcity
Rivers not deep
Houses and houses
Whole earth
Filled with factories
Their waste spoiling the soil
Creating a big turmoil
Greenery decreasing
Trees cut without thinking
Forests shrinking
Cities are increasing
Animals are dying
Snow melting
Heat is increasing
Mining and digging
Are like stabbing
Mother earth on the chest
For few grand
Lakes are full of filth
Fewer trees for shelter
Fewer birds now chirp
Let wisdom arrive
Don’t play with nature
Otherwise all will cry
No man will survive
Humans now wake
For your own sake

A real mess
We are paying through our nose
Any catastrophe of serious nature we can’t assume or suppose
It is definitely on the card and no one can esc ape from it
We are digging our own grave still not forcing eyes to meet
Not a single concern is expressed officially or publicly
Everything is moving in casual manner fake promises made orally
Some fund may be earmarked for perseverance of green nature
The world may be satisfied with this little assurance in future
We are cheating our own conscience and increasing hazards
We have compromised everything with the fall in standards
Industrial progress at the cost of depleting natural resources
We won’t know one day there will be nothing left to find out the source
We are bound to suffer and pay in enormous quantity
We are not on correct path and making quest in futility
Nothing goes on in the right direction and with speed
We are uprooting the trees and not attempting new to seed
Ground water level is depleting at alarming level
There is increase in fluoride and we are not faring well
All water related diseases are on increase with more concerns
How can we remain disassociated or completely discerned?
There is heavy under current change in inner belt
Its changes are causing havoc and definitely felt
Some of the dead volcano wells are activating
No attempt is on card for its deactivating
The vast area of sky is covered with ashes smoke
Many parts of globe reel under the fear of deadly stroke
There is fear of blanket cover of thick fog
we can do nothing but to watch its block
Why do we play all seek and hide from nature?
Are we not mature enough to think about future?
Do we still need more time how to contain natural disasters?
When al parts of world fear greater Tsunamis clusters
We may perish and sink altogether
The world may still remain unaware not bother
The world leaders may meet and think of earth’s meet
Have the peg of wines and warmly greet
Who can save us from global catastrophe?
Who will present best idea and win the trophy?
Will the novel ideas may help strengthen the nature’s cause?
The leaders may depart with the prevailing silence and pause
We are loosing rich heritage
Green jungles are our best friends with some advantage
We stand on fast loosing track or edge
We are simply ignorant for the want of knowledge

Life today
We are polluted
Thoughts are diluted
Voice is muted
Environment not suited
Such is life today
We have been pushed away
Nature is far off and distant dream
We are acting as an individual and not team
We are divided in cast, creed and religion
Hatred is added and forgotten the region
We are limited to tiny land
Where only foes rule and not the friends
Atrocity, murders and rape is order of the day
Such has become routine and find’s its way
Life is uncertain and goal very much unclear
Death has become cheap life always feared
Life is changing very fast
Nothing has been built on trust
At every step you encounter deception
Possibly it is order of day with new perception
How many deadly diseases added their names?
No immunity or medicine is found or claimed
Counter to counter resistance is diminished
Life stands to be lost and get finished
Any thing can happen on the way
You want peace in life to stay
It can never be had or dreamed
No hope of ray is possible or beamed
Everything has become instant
But has increased the distance
The natural flavor is lost
But has doubled its cost
What do we want to enjoy?
Fast life with fear in the absence of joy
I wish to return to natural habitat
Hopefully will be able to change the habits
Let city change its mood?
Let them change entire pattern of food
But one thing will never be changed
The pollution and others may not be managed

Human-nature relation
The Sun is beaming direct ultra rays
Sea waves rising and blocking the ways
Moon is hiding face with no cool shine
Nothing seems to be going very fine
Sudden change is causing alarm
Snow bound areas are turning warm
Greenery is disappearing along with farms
You don’t feel warmth when embraced by arms
Glaciers are melting with floods so common
Volcanoes erupt with force all of sudden
Earthquakes take toll with so much destruction
Human error tragedies too………………..
Nothing is going on in normal way
Nature is infuriated with complete sway
She has been naked by uprooting trees
Natural holocaust is asking for free
Spreading of virus and birth of new diseases
Human misery doesn’t stop or never ceases
What we are waiting for on earth to witness?
All able bodied human beings with weakness
We may loose complete natural resources
Helplessly we may watch all destructive forces
Nothing will be left to cry or lament upon
We may be digging grave for our own
Poisonous snakes and animals rush to population
Human hunt by them is on rise with escalation
We are inching forward for complete annihilation
This has got direct bearing on human-nature relation
How to protect and preserve our natural heritage?
Do we consider nature and its source as vintage?
Is nature loosing its prominence and advantage?
Let there be any thing but it has got an edge
It is still not late to act with honest intention
We must act fast for its loss or prevention
We may survive if nature is protected
Go for remedies or plugging holes if detected

Out There In Nature's Wild Kingdom
Out there in Nature's wild kingdom the struggle is for to survive
And the strongest and the fittest can only hope to thrive
In a time of Global warming chances of extinction multiply
And people as well as all of life endangered as the Planet becomes more dry,
Out there in Nature's wild kingdom by men one more wood is cut down
For to build a new housing estate on the verge of the town
Habitat destruction a huge threat to wildlife
In a World where human greed is becoming more rife
Out there amongst Nature birds and beasts of prey
The creatures of night and the creatures of day
Must kill for to eat such is life one might say
Survival of the fittest that is Nature's way
And out there in Nature's kingdom the fittest survive
And most creatures must struggle just to stay alive.

Paying in same coin
I never think of paying in same coin for retaliation
Even though there is attack with provocation
When my branches lower with load towards ground
Such changed in attitude from mankind is found
I think of it many a times but draw no conclusion
It sends me odd feeling with some confusion
How can passers by forget the fruits and shade?
When road was certainly deserted or forbade?
Who provides them safety and comforts?
Is there not some relaxation on the way or of that sort?
Nature has never deserted you in any extreme
Why sudden change to challenge the authority of the supreme?
It is not the case with human beings alone
The natural wealth is mercilessly spoiled even
Its reckless use may bring certain level of disaster
We gain the status of orphans and not that of master
This is not the only case where we are facing extinction
Forests are cut at enormous level and there is no new induction
The cyclones and floods take heavy toll of human power and properties
How long we may face such cruelty and uncertainties?
There is clear warning to all sections
The earth is loosing its belt very fast during action
Complete vacuum inside heavy plates
There is nothing more left to relate
We are sinking fast with volcano fire
How much ash is spread in atmosphere?
It may erupt again to cause disasters
We must forget to become sole masters
What will be gain if we loose our entity?
Become refugee in our own land with so much pity?
Where is the line to maintain good quality?
When there is rise in dishonesty and criminality?
Maintain the level if can’t improve further
Obey the natural rules and surrender
Earth has enough to feed you with protection
Take preventive measure with simple action

A direct attack
The sun was its new height with direct rays
People were running for shed in hot days
It was really unbearable to withstand the natural fury
It was making everybody tired and weary
The scorching heat was killing many in a broad day
There was no respite and roads were deserted all the way
Not a single bird flew in to venture for water
They all were to die sooner or later
I have never witness such natural displeasure
What may happen tomorrow? I am rally not sure
The heat waves may continue for some more days
The earth is also tearing apart and giving away the way
It has affected our lives and brought everything to a stand still
The poisonous gases are released day and night from the mills
The situation is worsening and adding to the misery
We are definitely inching forward to ruthless slavery
The sun beams were never causing any destruction
It may soon be realized if we go on for more induction
The environment is causing great alarm and raises the question
We silently watch helpless situation but never find its mention
We have no other means counter this menace
We are going for economic recovery and finance
No one cares for natural wealth and its perseverance
It lacks honest approach with little observance
The sun may enhance its capability to play more destruction
We have no means to employ it with any of the instruction
The temperature has never risen to such an alarming level
I think nature too is not favoring us and biding for our farewell
Glaciers are melting and flooding the rivers on both banks
The huts are washed away causing enough damage and sinks
It is really feared that in coming days we may witness more
Such tragedies in large scale compelling us to search ways and explore
It has got direct bearing on our future survival
Everything is dependant on pragmatic approach and its revival
We may be able to contain at some permissible stage
It is still not too late to accommodate and manage
The sea waves are rising high and many more tsunamis are feared
It needs lots of efforts and whole machinery to be geared
It may not afford us any chance to come off from sudden blow
There has to be greater determination on our part to show
We may still survive and last long
The path chosen by us is very wrong
Nature and mankind must live side by side
The gulf should not be created wide and wide
