Environment Poems
NOISE
by Acuda Derick
Noise all around,
From every sight and sound,
Like a symphony of chaos,
That fills the air around us.
The honking of cars,
The buzz of a guitar,
The laughter of children,
Or the bark of a dog in the garden.

Thanks To Nature
by Bhaskaranand Jha Bhaskar
Thank you for the air we breathe in
So that we can filter out
Dust and dirt;
Thank you for the water we drink
So that we can water plants, trees,
Green roots and ruts.
Thank you for the food we eat
So that we live to save the canopy
Of man and mankind;

A Maternal Plea
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
In the bygone days, I held you so near,
When turquoise skies were truly clear,
And emerald valleys sparkled in the sun,
And the pristine air could hurt no one.
And aqua waters shimmered transparency,
But that was long ago, in your infancy;
When towering, lush trees grew anywhere,
While riotous blooms crowded elsewhere!

Has our World gone mad?
by Dr. Robert Ippaso
I’m confused
At times bemused
By the turn society’s taking,
Sexuality so complex
Gender needing further context
All my preconceptions breaking.
Are cows good
On this we brood
Carbon footprint the new quandary,

Is Our Arrogance So Strong – in the wake of the Corona virus pandemic
by Dr. Robert Ippaso
Are those tears of sorrow or pure wrath,
God’s anger at mankind
Put on earth to tread his path,
Just to see us stumbling blind.
Little knowing, quite uncaring
Of our world so full of life,
Wanton damage truly glaring,
Callous actions clearly rife.

Exercise
by Gayatri Iyer
Time and tide waits for no man
Take care of your body when you can
For when it is too late
You cannot blame your fate
Nor curse your genes
So, begin to exercise early in your teens.
Healthy body is the only ground
where you can stay
Till your death ,safe and sound
Do not ignore the call of health
