Human Folly

Forests are felled
There once dwelled life -
Now quelled by greed.

Pulp to paper -
The razor tears
Through curtained flesh

Let’s laud our wit -
Bark - on it.. We
have writ   ‘Save trees’!

Wow, Sneha. Very impressive than-bauk. Were I not informed, beforehand, that it was a particular form, I barely would have noticed the rhymes .... very natural sounding. Cool subject matter .... I always found it also ironic how Dr. Seus' The Lorax (an environmentalist book) has cut down trees to spread its message! A much deserved top spot in the contest!
