A Warning

TI know I can’t touch the sky
But still I wanna fly
Not to have fun 
Nor to open my bun
I want to see the pain
Which people experience during the rain
I want to save those birds 
Which are always harmed and injured

It’s not my dream 
It’s not my aim
But still I want to see 
What is name and fame 
About which people talk 
And show it while they walk
I want to ask them 
Where is humanity

Killing animals for fun
Is this humanity
“No” we always learn
I want to preach 
What teachers teach
Those are only in the books 
But I wish to have those looks 
Of nature and wildlife 
As it was earlier before fights

Life is a race 
And we have to face 
The consequences that takes place
Helping others is not a bad thing
These are the manners elders always try to bring
But alas! What we teach 
We don’t preach

What a matter of sadness
We’re all full of madness 
Running after money like anything 
As if it is our everything
I want to warn those who think
To destroy nature and pay it later
We people only brought 
Flood and drought
People reap what they sow
No matter upper class or low
Nature is not our enemy
It’s not a foe

Love those who care for you
And respect those who try to do 
May not be successful
But is enough 
To inspire us
Not to give up
Trying trying doesn’t make any sense 
Until we learn from our mistakes
Still there is time 
It’s not too late
Otherwise I bet
There will be nothing left…..
