Mother Nature, We Are Indebted to You!
Preface
The life came in existence long back on Earth and then evolved in the lap of the nature progressing to the level of present day highly concious human beings. This conciousness is something which differenciates us from animals. We are a product of the elements of nature and our mythologies vividly describe it. I feel it is our duty to say thanks to the nature and mother Earth as we are indebted to it for what we are today. The best way to thank is to keep our enviroment clean and unpolluted.
Nature and Science
“The proper use of science is not to conquer nature but to live in it.”
—Barry Commoner
Mother Earth
You are our creator,
You are our mother.
We are indebted to you,
Oh! our originator.
All your elements,
Are within us.
You are the source,
We are the receivers.
The warmth of the sun,
Which you absorb.
The relentless spin,
That you observe.
You provide us days,
You provide us nights.
You provide us rains,
You provide us tides.
You gave us shelter,
In your caves.
You gave us fire,
In your woods.
We want to keep you clean,
We cherish it in our dreams.
This is the time to repay,
Only way that seems.
Our vow to keep you happy,
Our desire to keep you unpolluted.
Is the only way to go ahead,
As we all are indebted.
Environment
“The environment is where we all meet; where we all have a mutual interest; it is the one thing all of us share.”
-Lady Bird Johnson
Endnote
Keeping the environment clean and habitable is the primary requirement of the present times and by achieving that only we can convey our respect and honour to the mother Earth. We are indebted to her and this is the only way to repay.
