Nature Beckons Me

a poem by Padmini

Oh mama! The moon is calling me.
High up in the sky;
To play hide and seek with him.
To befriend the stars and the night sky.

Oh mama! Look at the sun.
How brilliantly it shines in the sky.
Such lovable warmth it gives us.
And makes the trees and the plants smile.

Oh mama! I love mother nature.
She takes me in her arms all day.
Without a whimper she takes my weight.
Throughout the night and the day.

Oh mama! This is love, this is care.
This is the way that life should be everywhere.
No fight or bloodshed anywhere.
Only love and its brilliance and its tender care.
