Some people might feel,
Why poets write about simple things,
Like nature, plants, and trees.
Humans are a wonderful creation by God,
It is a matter of time when environment would be extinct.
So, there must be poems and books on plants,
To make the future generation feel what their ancestors have done,
Unnoticed poems about nature would be precious then,
Because it is human nature to realise the value of a thing only when we lose them.
The essence of the earth would be lost
With growing infrastructure.
The rains would be gone
As pollution takes control over.
Shade from trees would be replaced by shade from skyscrapers.
What will people greet with when there are no flowers left?
The greenery would be seen no more,
This planet will appear sad
When the touch of nature would be lost,
This world will die,
When the last plant is crushed to death.
