Good Morning - East West North South 1/2

Good Morning 1/2 East West North & South Birds and flowers said, Good Morning to not yet visible Sun The Butter flies, Black bee and the Honey bee, spread their wings, While hovering on one flower to another and flying on buds Before touching flower’s petal like lips and taking its nectar A bunch of honey bees, which were waiting and were flying On the lotus flowers and buds, looked towards east and Said Good Morning to east horizon Where the Sun was awaited any moment to start spreading Its sunshine, while some smaller insects quickly said Good Morning As if, they too were in a hurry to feel the nectar of Mother Nature on their lips In the North east of the country we know as India On the mountain Himalayan ranges of Kanchanganga* Where the Sunrays had just started spreading first golden beams The peaks too were saying Good Morning in the praise of God, Thanking the Mother Nature for spreading its Gold treasures* on the snow peaks so lavishly After Thanking Almighty God, they made a humble complaint Saying, “Some humans are planning to make a road up to Mount Everest. O God, Give some good sense to them Not to destroy God’s grandeur and the serene beauty of this place By polluting the Mount Everest and its adjoining places, Even the noises of many and many army boots Too is creating a noise pollution, my Lord” A strange thing happened and the peaks heard loud thunder in The sky, as if in a roaring Voice the God was telling and murmuring “Do not bother My Child. If some humans have gone out of mind And are trying to carry out any such designs, On or around Mount Everest, The earth would over turn such devastating projects, Build by some humans or by those, who are Working in human disguise to destroy the peace of earth By violence, hatred and a compassionless attitude and life Ravindra concluded in part 2 Kanpur India 11th March 2010 *Gold treasures. In the early morning hours when the sunrays fall on The Peaks of Kanchanganga, they glitter like gold. This view can also be seen from Darjeeling (a hill station of India) or from Sikkim state of India * Kanchanganga Name of the Himalayan mountain range covered with snow
