Save Children Poem by Aftab Alam

Rain!
I know your pain and the earth’s gain
Who will make the paper boat?
Kids are not making;
Busy with the computer game or TV
Watching some cartoon show,
All animation
Childhood ditched by idiot box,
Fetched lethargy
Houses has became a museum of artificiality
Children has lost their childhood
They have become a robot
Or a parrot mugging lessons,
Through book only
They came to know paddy or wheat
Plants that grow in the field
They know only war field
Or about the killing machine
They are book fed or computer fed
They know the world through TV
They think life itself is animation
Save children save earth save humanity
Save water and teach water harvesting
Show them paddy or wheat field
Otherwise,
It’s not far, nature will compel us to know
To save the nature and the human being
