Population, pollution Spread till polar region Spare no inch of an earth On their way of cruise.

I love this...sentimental but realistic...An idealist who is also a realist. I read Chaos theory, this falls in line with it...the earth is in constant motion and always changing, as painful as these events are, they are the state.

Very touchingly … the thought is logically transferred on 'The earth gives and takes away, while we stand by' 10 …

Yes, Rani. We delude ourselves that we can control nature but we are simply blown about by its caprices. Wonderfully expressed, as always. Fx

‘The earth is but a boiling pot’…a telling concluding line especially to read along with the caption 'humanity in pain'…very meaningful composition this…my ten for relieving some pain…
