When the Woods talk

On a cozy trip to the rustic countryside,

Came across some beauties at every stride,

Dragged by the fragrant flowers of the badlands,

I ventured into the conifer lands,

And found the soothing chirps of the birds,

Suddenly turn into a commotive twitters,

The little squirrels scampered in jitters,

Shaking up the branches of the trees,

I had to hurry away after the swarming bees,

Caught hold of my uninvited presence,

In their small natural habitat,

Finally when out of the greensward,

Found some men with instruments walk toward,

The woods, with talks passing by my ears,

"Have to clear all the woods,

In a span of two months,

Making space for the complexes,

Would give this place the needed influxes,

Of tourists and resources."

Soon the sky blasted a thunder,

The area was covered with stormwater,

I ran for cover again into the same woods,

Where I heard some whispers breeze past,

"Nature tries its best to take care of itself,

It's you humans, who don't let us live in peace,

Solutions from natural calamity lies within ourselves,

Unless its blunders you people commit that's irreparable.".
