Environs And We Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran
Environs And We
Men who lived in ancient days
found out five truth basic
Earth, fire, water, air and sky
elements five- this way!
Chemistry thereon, we needn't try
A single sperm- one guy-
An ovum forms one more pie
Make compounds, thus of five!
The ancient fathers knew they run
as body, mind, and brain
Worship them- they did with pain
Pollute them- not trained
Today, we teach lessons to all
on Environmental science!
‘Ecosystems- we protect them
A need for existence'!
Lessons we learn a better way
by practicing what they say
And practice always makes perfect
Teachings beliefs, what may!
‘Pollute you not you worship what'
A science as simple as that
Hence Nature's worship- one practice-
Not meaningless all that!

Like the thought process behind this. Agree about the elements, there is an ayurverdic theme in this (I think?) . Good post. HG: -) xx
A wonderful composition bringing out an elemental truth! Best wishes.
An interesting write with a great message, unfortunately we humans have gone beyond all reasoning and therefore are digging our own roots. It is not the nature that is at risk here, as it'll always find ways to find new balances, we are playing with our own existence. A very urgent message and warning, thanks for sharing!
Who are we? What is our very essense in this humanity? Have we done our part to partake and take charge in the world we live? Questions arises in this wonderful piece...Brilliance and thanks for sharing this social awareness piece.
A very important message to the society- quite insensitive society to environmental protection! Thanks for sharing!
