MOTHER NATURE Autumn leaves flutter with the morning gales Dew drops slowly wane from the warm sunrays, The golden horizon unfolds eye-pleasing delights, Cool, a dream appears in the castle of thoughts. The pretty butterflies, their eye-pleasing colors The beautiful birds, their erratic flying endeavors, The soul-stirring snow-clad mountains stand afar, A stream flows from the mountain foot, so clear. Preserving the spirit of life for the world’s future Incredible are the features of our amazing nature; Alas! Mind enclosed with the mist of selfish nature Humans fail to recognize nature’s unselfish nature. While a mother rejoices by the pranks of her child So also nature rejoices with all-beings of the world; Suffering in silence the agonies inflicted by humans Yet, nature waits tolerantly for a change in humans. The love and serenity bestowed by Mother Nature The eye of our inner vision can visualize its gesture; Well before the life-giving radiance of nature fades Let us pledge to protect nature with a right attitude.
