The Endeavor of Ennobling

The Endeavor of Ennobling

A Poem by Sumeet Mathur
"

Mother Earth cries to us to become human and leave aside our monstrous ways, stop inflicting damage on it, so that we each may live in harmony. And its upto each individual to give in his/her efforts

"

People believe:

To change something forever,

It always starts with the Man in The Mirror.

 On this Earth, long we have all been,

both aged and teen,

And I believe of all our goals,

The most important should be to ennoble our souls.

For without guilt, we use our world as a fence,

And show it our assumption of reverence,

 But what makes the difference,

Is our rigid preference.

 Now to save the world from the end of its tether,

The masses of millions must come together.

Because even though we claim it as the Mother of all,

We, each, look to erase it from History’s scroll.

For while we cut trees and burn fuel here,

The Earth blinds back tear after tear.

To respect this fact:

To give our evils a strong border,

I believe an Endeavour to heal the world, is in order.

And to give the healing process a direction,

 I suggest a bit of introspection,

This way, every man, woman and child,

Would, on “Mother” Earth, stop being so wild.

Long enough has been postponed a juncture,

Where we think about the future.

For why should the Earth, on us, show pity,

When, to save it, are ready, neither foolish nor witty?

So let us leave a little behind for our kith and kin,

And deprive ego of its biggest win.

For only those are believed human,

Who live and let live.
