Live And Let Live Poem by Srikanta Ravishankar Somayaji

Mother Nature is so beautiful
So beautiful
That even our present Hollywood Actresses
Cannot match it.

But this glorious beauty
Only appreciated
By Naturalists And Poets
Is being destroyed by
This ruthless race of humans.

The hacking of all the trees in the neighborhood goes on
Under some pretext of broadening the road
O! The minerals are being milked out
And the rivers,
Are becoming Garbage Gravy Rivers
Due to the industrial effluents.
The deadly vanity of man is killing innocent animals for their fur, bone and skin.

Don’t you think that this is unnecessary?
So come on my dear friends,
Let us make this earth,
A Heaven where there is the policy-
Live And Let live.
