In Modern Terms

a poem by Pavalamani Pragasam

Grow and multiply!
A Divine blessing indeed.
Nature is procreation-
The axis on which the earth rotates.
Nature, in modern terms,
Is a factory
Each part in its place
Each action on time-
Masterminded by our Creator.
The Elements, the Seasons,
The Revolutions, the Cycles-
Are in truth the perfect parts of
A machinery of astounding complication
Functioning with stunning precision.
Perennial fuelling, constant recycling,
Phased regeneration and much more
Make our earth the Eden it is.
