There can be 2 worlds where our children or their or their .. children can find themselves in, one in a land of rocks without water and air, plants and animals, all hot and all cold OR the world where we were born and bought up by our parents.
As the saying goes “What goes around, comes around”.
An introspection that made me do my bit for the environment. I was so shocked to see when I sat and wrote this that in how many ways I can help mother Earth.
Getting ready for office I was,
Flowing bath tap without pause
The room I went to, was left behind,
with lights and fans, running combined
The mosquito killer goodnight mat pays
Paradoxes its name by running even in days
Breakfast is breaking the fast with a quick bite
Even with coffee machine heating left and right
The geyser which heats runs for hours
“I forgot to switch off, there was no power”
The lunch being cooked by the cook of the house
Is blackening the roof, blacker than the attic mouse
A chimney to buy, he says: “is too costly”
Costlier than the life it’s affecting poorly
Off to office, driving on the roads
Playing the music harsher than toad’s
The sound rustling so high, no one bothers
Music it is for me, headache for others
Reaching the office, climbing through lift
No hurry, but the ladder is just not swift
Using the Gym, I will also be
Walking in the park, Let it be
Fresh air and walk are much healthier
Gym is more IN, till I am wealthier
My laptop and my PC are always working
Even when I am out, they are lurking
Forgot to give water to the money plant
Which rests on my desk and is going slant
A little of water, a little of care,
will give me more O2 to share
I drink from 10 paper cups, 10 times a day
Forgetting for a cup a tree is slay
Using a Mug will make more sense
Making the greenery ever so dense
Coming back from office, I bring the packs
Of grocery and eatables, laying on the racks
Using the paper instead of polybag
Lessening the plastics in the house to sag
Bulbs we use, are easier to choose
Making the ozone ever so loose
Chloro Floro carbons that they ooze out
Hampers the climate without any doubt
A little change here, a little effort there
Let’s show Mother Earth that we do care.
How we can, What do we do ??
Who can help you out ?
