No one sees the tears of Nature...
When pollution propels heart to rupture...
No one feels for the predominant pain...
When we torture our Mother like kids insane...
Her tears...her pain...her yell...
As though She has been transformed to Hell...
Fail to sway our heads indifferent...
As we continue to crush our enviroment...
But let us not forget this undisputed truth...
We also suffer for this voracious loot...
If a mother cries...the child will cry...
And one day, the entire civilisation wil die...!
Debasish Mishra
They say what we've accomplished now,
is all the fruit of all we've wrought
how beautiful it is, they say
ignoring how one-sided this
this vision that they keep declaring
painting a future bright and clear
but what they overlook is fear
and the stress and strain, its wearing
us down, you think, what did I miss
and all of this? we will soon pay,
so dont forget, though they forgot
that each tomorrow starts with now

Life Lessons can be the hardest to learn but are always the most rewarding.....
What are the lessons that we so deeply need to learn? Are they lessons of making things better and bright? Are they lessons of change making things right?
Are they lessons that teach us today? Lessons of hope, are they honest and true? These lessons are what make me and you!
These lessons we learn are they happy or sad? Do we love and forgive or do we stay mad? The lessons in life are future events.
Lessons not handled make empty a plan, a lesson in life is like two birds in the hand. One lesson to love one lesson to hate. Which one to choose? Which one to make.
Lessons not easy so hard to discern, no better answer than the lesson well learned. Learn the lessons the people say. Lessons well learned are easy to replay.
When the lesson is learned you don’t make the same plan. You know the one that was messed up, that bad deal of a hand.
Lessons in life are awesome at best because of the change that it makes in our hearts. They are lessons in life that never depart. Learn the lessons with all your heart.
