We Can Do Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

We can do it again
It should be our main concern
Mother earth wants it to be done
Time is in our hands and days still not gone

Rivers can be streamed in proper direction
May do more damage if not taken proper action
All dams and canals are to be kept up to the mark of perfect design
Prosperity and peace may be seen as prospective sign

Solar energy is cheapest means to use
We have to plan accordingly and choose
Energy is available in abundance
We must harness and then be taken into use at once

Nuclear energy is not as easy as thought over
It has to be safely guarded with wide cover
Safety is main concern with earth belt already threatened
No plan is to be put critical hastily and implemented

Pesticide is taking toll of fertility
Earth is loosing its fruitfulness and good quality
No harvest can be taken without the use of chemicals
It has cast doubt for whole mankind with question of survival

We can turn to natural remedy
Everything is in plenty and ready
Let us protect forests and unblock river ways
Let the water flow smoothly and speed away

Wind energy can be explored in full as cheapest mean
So many villages can be lighted and kept clean
Pollution free villages are model for next generation
Cities with modernization in question mark with relation

There has to be no indiscriminate slaughter of live stocks
It may bell death knock in the clock
We will be left with no manure
Land then will be unsafe in future

Let us plan and join hands together
Look toward science for help and go further
Not a blind march toward modernization
We should not be held responsible for deterioration
