Winds of Change
Wind, a very strong wind
Uprooting formidable trees
Of righteousness, morality descend
Wiping the butterflies and Bees
That bestow color and sweetness
To discerning sagacious eyes
Tormenting souls witness
How humanity cries
Destroying all that is in path
Reducing frail houses of virtues
To fragments in their wrath
And then the change ensues
Gigantic skyscrapers of lust
In the horizon of ambition
Rise from the ground’s dust
Wearing immaculate condition
And pythons of motorways of concrete
Crawl in the serenity of greenery
With smokes vehicles secrete
Atmospheric imbalance kills scenery
Change is the law of nature
Everything that exists is prone
To change and alteration of feature
Providence has decreed and shown
But must change adopt this fashion
As the smiling bud changes into flower
Can’t there be virtue in alteration
Is conflict with nature only answer
