Desecration

The present day evils we acknowledge Are the consequences of our sacrilege Committed by us, humans of all age We owe it to greed, avarice and pillage. No restraint on pinching the resources Results in rapid depletion of reserves In our appetite for utilization of assets Show contempt to nature’s belongings. If we do not cultivate a healthy attitude Mother Nature may express her anger In many ways with unknown magnitude By abandoning the customary solicitude. Thus it is high time to rise and wakeup And set right, in earnest all her make-up Let us not fail the mother in her keep-up And with a firm resolve, let us stand up. Let us not fail to realize her deep sadness By doing-away with our total selfishness To save ourselves as well as our progeny Let us not become our own worst enemy.
