Creation

Earth, sky, streams, rivers, hills, mountains, oceans and seas,
Herbs, shrubs, plants, trees... fall of water and gentle breeze; 
Minerals within the earth; stones and jewels rare,
In divine nature's treasury, each has its share...! 

Five elements of nature dare to say each day,
Stories of heaven and earth in their very way;
When creator and creation are well-mingled,
Why any being ever left severely singled...?

Be fruitful; increase in number - the maker said. 
Trusting in his graciousness humans went ahead;
Human creations on earth, excelled the nature,
Turned, unfortunately, God a caricature...! 

Does any creature fear when a stream flows flawless?
What if waters break all dams and run lawless? 
Riches (natural or human-made) is for all,
Accounts need to be given at the divine call...!

Truth! So we’ll written. Stirred my emotions, from praising God to feeling disturbed, as usual, about the legacy of humanity. Here your words in their necessity and excellent poetry are worth much applause.
