Nature Poem by Phurpa Wangdi

I watch the gushing lake
Its anger forced on the pebbles by the bank
Watch the sky so blue
Like in a painting, it looks so true

Through the magnificent trees
Blows a cool zephyr
Moving the leaves
Making them dance on its rhythm

Sitting here on a verdant ground
listening to chirps of birds so many
Feeling heavy and light at a time
I see nature at its best.

Nature has given us all
From water, air, food and lives
It can satisfy our needs
yet not everyone's greed.

We have let natures lesson
Get so much out of sight
Humans; meant to be the pride of all creations
Has done but the worst of all the harms

Bound by our selfishness
We have but lost the sight of happiness
Lost the trust in the mother of all creations
Making our life no less than the hell

Many brag of caring nature
When only few grips hold of trees
When there are wastes so many
When they are the reasons nature is so threatened

As you sleep a sleep
Ponder on the unjust
To the mother earth
Give it back its glory

If only I could stop the people
We will have tales of nature to tell
We will have pride burning in our heart
We will be able to save the earth.
