Symphony of nature

Waterfall rushes down jagged rocks,
Forming a complex rhythm.
Insects dance to the symphony of nature,
Wings in sync, all telling a story.
Leaves rustle against the breeze,
Animatedly fighting against the wind, creating a dramatic composition.
Bark crunches against my feet,
Acting as the percussion.
But the performance will end.
Roar of chainsaw drowns out the beautiful music,
It growls menacing.
My head throbs,
A whirlpool of emotions.
Sad, angry, scared, worried.
Monotonous beeps of excavators dig into the flesh of Mother Nature,
My eyes water.
I can hear Mother Nature screaming, pleading for mercy.
The orchestra slowly fades away.
The old forest is gone,
And the new one is made of metal
