The Song of Love

a poem by Ramesh T A

Tell not the story but sing
The song of love to the youth
Before they become antisocial brutes
To plunge headlong in the destruction of things
Valuable to the mankind of the world!

Love blossoms between two hearts,
A great wonder indeed in human relationships!

Love never sees power or possession,
A generous act pure as crystal clear water!

Love denies nothing to the loved ones,
A rich power that bothers about nothing!

Mother, lover and friend are of the same sort;
In love, they out do themselves beyond their means!
Such is the power of love in the world
That life of love makes life divine here!

Sky pours rain overland high or low;
Land grows plants profusely for all to enjoy;
Tree give fruits and flowers ever even heartlessly plucked;
Nature repeats its performance for the present and the posterity.

This is the song of love that goes on endlessly
In Nature for everyone to see, learn and follow!
When this is so, why hate, fight and demolish
Nature and humans, beautiful, lovely and sweet?
