Are the Conversations dying with the Trees?
When I was a child with curious big eyes
And a mind too naive, ready to absorb
Anything that the nature had to provide
I looked at the sky, oh so blue & white!
I looked through the forests, lush green & free!
I looked into the oceans, blue, bubbling with life!
And then I would close my eyes
Fill my lungs with the fresh healing breeze of the times
…………………………………………………………….
But now I see, there are kids like how I used to be
Naive & trusting; stuck at home, watching the media cry
There is nothing for them outside
Nothing left within the nature to care for them & provide
They wear masks during the day
And stare at their phones at night
They know each other only through filters
And don’t let anyone see their real side
………………………………………………………………..
They have dimmed their brightness to suit the negativity of life
They have shut their mouths to make Time for their fingers to tweet about #FreedomOfSpeech
Stress, Competition, and Money are the new Love, compassion, and funny!
