Civilized Poem by Madhuri Sawant

Civilized

Rating: 3.0


They say humans are most civilized from all kinds,
But every dog knows how to follow his superior kind.
Ants know how to toil for food,
And cat knows how to be good.

But even cattle knows how to nurture her calf,
When the world among itself falls in half.
For jealousy, lust, power, fame to be in his hold,
When penguins know how to help each other in cold.

Even sheep know how to run after another,
When a teenage boy doesn’t know how to care for his mother.
Crows kill the member, who are offend,
When the greatest law of mankind doesn’t know to defend

Crows raise another kind tot,
When human’s doesn’t pay heed to other crying cot.
If all humans need to be so selfish,
It is better off be animals be civilized.

You have described the activities of the animals and insects that are natural for them, behavior specific to the species. No civility involved here. Civilized is not the right word to be used here, I am afraid!
