Me, the earth
You see my beautiful face
The beautiful sky and greeneries
Lovely flowers and sweet chirping birds
You dig
Dig and build
Your sky rise
You burn
Burn my woods
You cut
Cut my forest
You stop
Stop my flow of rivers
The exhausts of your vehicles
The shoots of your industries
The toxins
Of your weapons
Pollute
My water and air
My children
Animals and birds
Forest and flowers
Die of exhaustion
I cry
Cry of pain
Cry of anguish
Cry out of anger
Boil and boil, under
My crust
I heave hard
Boil anger
Shake and shake
I want to bring down
Your sky rise
Crush them to ground
I become angry
Really angry
I shake your prides
Crush your vanity
Raze them to ground
Then I sigh of relief
And become normal
Once again
I engage in my creation.
Boil anger Shake and shake I want to bring down Your sky rise Crush them to ground I become angry Really angry I shake your prides Crush your vanity Raze them to ground Then I sigh of relief And become normal Once again I engage in my creation. A true interpretation of the Mother Earth's Fury and revenge. A beautiful flowcof emotion showers simultaneously. Thanks for the sharing of the lovely poem.10+++ for it. Subhas
Marvelous poem. Every word cuts through the heart...as to what Earth must be feeling.
The agony and fury of the earth has so beautifully been explained. Still man is reluctant to stop exploiting the earth

You dig Dig and build Your sky rise You burn Burn my woods You cut Cut my forest You stop Stop my flow of rivers....wow greatly written on behalf of the earth; yes, the earth is the most beautiful mother of us; for our greed and nonsense activities now this earth, our beautiful mother's life at stake; finestly furnished the aspects of the earth... one of your great poem
Earthquakes are parts of a woman" s life, from birth to death she faces so many earthquakes, still stands once again for her family.

I would like to translate this poem
Hi Bharati, A poem rightly and correctly depicting man's thoughtless exploitation of nature; and the earthquake as Her reaction to this thoughtlessness. Then She calms down, which comes to Her naturally. Because She is KSHAMA (means patience, one of the synonyms for Earth in Sanskrit) . And of course, She should follow, what is said in Bhagavat Gita, KarmaNye vaadhikaraste, Ma phaleshu kadachana, truly responding to the call of her 'children', as Mother Earth. Man often forgets what the famous Malayalam writer reminded us, 'Earth belongs to every creature lives in it. Not man alone. Forceful work. But, does anybody listen? We continue dig deep the earth's surface to bring our coal, oil etc. It is argued that such mining activities do cause imbalance and may result quakes.
I agree to Unnikrishnan E S
Thank you Unnikrishnan and Abdulrazak Aralimatti.Human beings by their thoughtless exploitation of earth; s resources causing irreparable damage to this earth.Though man is aware of the danger he is not taking necessary corrective measure for protection of earth.
