O Mother Earth!

When will we learn?
The shining sun isn't golden anymore
It is hidden beneath the blanket
Of black smog; and who else
But we ourselves, are to blame?
It has lost its aura
Emanating no more, the resplendent sunlight
That it once did...
The dry river beds haven't had a visitor
Since ages abound...
The gentle flow of the river has long ceased;
Its subtle sound unheard for an eternity
All there is, is silence
Cold; Heartless; Painful
Silence
The trees have felled their leaves,
Greyed beyond recognition
Those leaves, once green, now
A shade of flaccid marble white
But be not fooled by them,
For they look to be old;
But they are as young as morning dew
There is no more
The season of the sun;
Of the flowers; Of blistering cold;
Or of tranquil rain...
Just one, of stagnated growth
And perennial dullness, persists; and is seen
Wherever the eyes might turn to...
When will we learn?
O Mother Earth,
When will we learn?
