As I travelled in the lush green Junagadh region of Gujarat.... i couldnt help but pen this down and as if the eye-soothing green patches of land actually conversed with me...
.. n so there it goes... ...
....
He first said, so beautiful you are, can i stay?
She said yes- u r my son, all i have is yours, i say.
He said I will cut some green and use it for survival
She said yes - go ahead, take your fill, make your life beautiful.
He said i will dig you and make a ranch
She said yes - my love will hold you and give you all the strength.
He said there will be pollution in waters and air
She said yes - that is your right; but be careful, do not impair.
He said all is destroyed and survival is rare
She said yes - but try and reconstruct, bliss will surely be there.
And Man finally said am moving out for a better life elsewhere
Mother Nature said yes - Son, You devoured and destroyed your own mother,
U will find peace nowhere !
