Animals Are Better Than Humans Poem by Arfa Iris

Animals Are Better Than Humans

Rating: 3.9


i saw birds pecking at a snake,
to save nest of their fellow mate.
i saw a lioness standing against the lions pride,
to save a calf, she did fight.

i saw monkeys fight a dog to save kitten,
though in salvaging they got bitten.
these all made me think,
there i saw love all around.

then i saw a man stabbing his friend,
for money was more important in his ken.
i saw a woman killing her daughter,
because she was not happy with the girl's father.

i saw a brother killing the other,
with his own hand,
just for a piece of land.
and all these made me think,
animals are much more better.

who kill because of nature, just to feed.
on money, land and position they dont pay heed.
but humans are not humans any more.
who re infecting the world in whole.

going against their nature,
as on money, land and position they pay heed.
and kill others even when they have all they need
they keep destroying each other.
and i think compared to humans animals are better.

Human is the greatest creature complete with emotion and mind, animal can go far from how modern they can be..but how modern can we reach is not milestone of the level of humanity, so i could say human are better if they use mind to do wise, the mind we have to control all life..if we lose it yeah what diff with animal, maybe it's true we can get lower than that..I know the thinking you try to ask here which is good :) wonderful...hope we all can look it in positive...coz we all now how we can consider we are human if humanity is not exist in us...and mind without thinking is same living without mind..cool write_Unwritten Soul (sorry for late respond)

Wow. Truly, this poem shows what has happened to humanity. Animals have become more human than humans. Likewise, humans have become beasts, because of their greed. AWESOME poem, kind madam.

I love this poem. It shows such a valid point animals are truly better than humans, what is the point of humans being more intelligent if you are going to be vicious for no reason.
