Planet Earth
POETRY FORMAT, 23 Mar 2015
Dr. Ashok T Chakravarthy – TRANSCEND Media Service
In the deep woods, stunning and beautiful
The black cuckoo sings a song, remorseful;
Concern over ‘human-conflicts’ it voice a tale
And the theme echoes across the hills and dale
Are we not co-living creatures on planet earth?
The caravan of black ants, run hither and thither
Infiltrations and invasions drive them with fear;
What if, if human-bond lives with self-acceptance
Lo! Love blossoms at any given time, at any place.
Are we not co-living creatures on planet earth?
A group of pigeons like a dangling cloud, flees
In the far-off habitats they hear human cries;
A mother for her child, a child for mother, weeps,
What with loathe and dispassion humans shall reap?
Are we not co-living creatures on planet earth?
The stream in the woods swarm with living creatures,
Without grudge they embrace diversity in all weathers;
But, they feel scared and insecure by human actions
They cannot express, yet enlighten us with reactions
Are we not co-living creatures on planet earth?
As a sole sect of living creatures on the planet earth
Let’s make a difference by sharing love and faith;
This bond of universal-love is our essence for survival,
Let’s ensure; buds of love begin to blossom in real.
And impart, we are co-living creatures on planet earth!
