Are You Listening?

You’re a part of us

Yet you don’t understand 


Is mistreating your own

family a proud thing to do?

Is this your upbringing?

Is this what you have been taught?


Who will retort to these problems, 

Who will hear to our troubles,

These issues keep trotting in our mind

Yet we are silenced


While going on a trip to your favourite destination

And clicking pictures adoring the beauty we possess

You do love and admire us

But is that love only to the extent of clicking a photograph with us?


What after that,

Are we nothing for you?


Right from your hair to your toe,

Everything you are covered with

Is our gift to you

But you still slay us for no reason

Are we subsisting for the sole purpose of trade

Or

Are we here to pool some memories and feel glad 

Finding a place in the photographs with you?

We are really perplexed


You seed us

You water us 

For years and years 

But one day when we start reaping fruits


You deal with us in the market for the sake of earning money

Which we don’t oppose 

But dealing us for a portion of the land

Which is ours ”to what extent it is fair?”


Doing this 

You are not only undermining the beauty

But also snatching shelter of many animals and birds


Strange, isn’t it?

Early in the morning 

When we fly chirping

It sounds sweet to you

But the same sweetness

Turns bitter in taste

When it comes to

safeguarding us


Our cousins are melting

Still no one gives a fuck about it

Are humans just for the sake of recreation in their life?

If the answer is in the affirmative,

Let us tell you that  ”if there would be no us

There is no you”


We don't just release oxygen

But we intake carbon too

So

Protect us 

And 

We will protect you


But make sure that

”No one dares to destroy us anymore”


Alarming you that

The situation around the globe 

Is very bad

But you all are not with us

The only reason

We are very sad
