An Ode to Sad Endings

Oh the little sparrow, you had a chirp
A chirp that cheered us all
A chirp that woke grandmothers up
A chirp that made us smile
A chirp I wish I heard now.

Oh mighty neem tree, you gave us shade
Shade that protected us from the harsh sun rays
Shade that cooled us off on a hot summer night
A tree with a green umbrella
An umbrella that exists no more.

Oh rain drops, you were so fresh
So fresh I could directly let them fall
Fall right into my mouth and not bother
Not bothered about after effects
After effects that kill us now.

Oh mighty sea, you were so calm
Never was I scared to get deeper
Never was a mother too cautious
The sea that has the rage of a mighty warrior
Waiting to engulf half our population.

Whose fault is it all?
Who is to take the blame?
Who is to face the after-effects?
Who is to be concerned now?
None, but you and me.

Progression vs. Regression

Common man lives in an environment that is altered and changed by him. Over the years, he has evolved, therefore having an after-effect in his surroundings. He started to change his channel of thinking and developed his milieu that suited his way of living. A society is subject to change; the main reason being, the residents are humans. Human beings are never constant. Their basic needs and necessities keep altering as they evolve. Thus, man decided to take nature’s assistance to provide his ever growing population with food, clothing and shelter. This is where it all began: Climatic Regression. Change is good when the society has sustainable development. This means the society moves up the ladder without damaging its surroundings or disturbing any part of nature. This was not how man was going to achieve his goals in life: “keeping nature in mind!” Instead, he decided to sabotage the vivacity of nature and her components and keep himself happy. Climate, like humans is subject to chang...

As I.. Part II

As I sit by your side I feel a rush A feeling never felt before Making me want to compromise As I stare into your eyes I see that sparkle A twinkle never seen before Making me want to want you more As I walk by your side I hold your firm hand A touch never felt before Making me want to cuddle As I hear you talk Words pouring out randomly A need never felt before Making me want to listen more As I listen to you singing A tune so romantic A gush of emotion Making me want to cry As I lie on your shoulder Listening to your heartbeat A new level of comfort arises Making me want to be this way Forever..
