Nature And Humans Poem by Somanathan Iyer

If the air that we breathe stops! Imagine!
If the waters that we use disappear! Imagine!
If the Sun and Moon from which we benefit shun their duties!
Imagine! Gloom and doom everywhere!
If the Fire that is needed in our daily lives stops to glow or rage at any level!
Imagine! The impact on one and all!

When Nature with all its powers
Performs its duties as per assignment
We, the Humans! the mortals
Protesting to express our displeasure
Indulge in all sorts of stunts, closures, arm twists and strikes!
We stop doing work and spoil the development

Allowed by Nature everything in abundance
Misusing that, mankind created scarcity of land and water
Mistaking the mere swelling as strength
Achievements we boast of in controlling Nature
Nothing can be invented beyond Nature
We only discover things once existed or destined to exist

Knowingly or unknowingly endangered is the Nature due to our Greed
Let the Nature be protected! let the lives on earth be protracted!
