Disappearing Nature
By Nakshathra G
Rivers rushing, birds humming, trees waving
a peaceful land
Rumble! And there it started
trees crying for help,
rivers pleading as they fight for life
Homes destroyed,
Animals running away
the light awaits
Underground
a steel form jabbing at the soil
Thud! Colour wiped from the land
Nothing left but a drop of water
Country doing her best to fight for her children
peace now disturbed
life takes place now
beasts playing with Country's resources
not knowing what she's capable of
destruction was the beasts' best friend
Nature's heartbeat -- rapidly, ground trembling
shaking
What happened to Country?
