Earth, why won’t you talk to us All who dreamily walk Within your damp vessel Across your fumigene temple You’ll say words that winds blow Through soft tempest of skins To those who listen with their soul To all those nature worshippers Why you most lovable planet – Only one that carries all kinds of life Remains humble and tolerant towards These same that commit all these plight You are going else-way as you change And you keep yourself all sane all soft While above your skin we dirty we saccage And on your own, quietly you moult Your soldiers shake, move, stir, wreck – Elements at war Your children saccage, pollute, break – Unaware of what you are And you remain calm and serene Fluidly taking shapes into roots into flowers Into rivers into lagoons into mountains Into trees into grasses into rocks into soil Anthropomorphic dreams of renewal Constant seasonal cell regeneration So you keep quiet you keep calm you keep to you The secrecy of your decay till rebirth. -eiravel-
On the 5th of June we celebrated ‘World Environmental Day’, while yesterday the 8th we celebrated ‘World Oceans Day’. Nature has a very special place in my heart, where in this poem, I anthropomorphise its essence and glorify its constant renewal… while we humans, destroy ourselves through the destruction of the ecosystem needed for our own survival.
