Made me think about life, but sadly, not in a positive light.
A lovely poem with a good moral too, not to meddle up in natures way.
Beautifully penned. simple mechanism so built-in, its all in 'Nature's way', let's not meddle-in, better we stay away. Thanks for sharing the poem.
An excellently created poem, but I cannot see a baby turtle in this photograph. Do you? It is blue and a ribbled back. As far as I am concerned, a baby turtle is bit brownish and no tibbles on his back. Sorry that I have said these things, but I am a fervent photographer next to poetry, paintings, pen-drawings and so on, and this does not look real.Thank you for sharing your fascinating poem.
Nature has its own way to protect its inhabitants! Animals and birds can take care of themselves... It is better that human beings don't intervene! However the camp in Nature's lap must have been an exciting experience!
A Beautiful poem penned with a poetic bliss..This is about nature and how our sentiments and interferences can derail nature's course..
I like this poem very much. even though it has a sad ending, the poem serves as a moral to not try and fix something that does not need any fixing. so it is with nature's very essence. if we take something, we must be wary that it does not break our fragile balance with nature. otherwise what we are doing is to our own detriment.
(Nature's Way! ! by Siddartha Montik.) **Nature has ways that men know not.
Lesson learnt after a mistake at the cost of lives dear nicely expressed in the poem.
re turtle........i would tend to use alone rather than lone, but the difference i feel is very slight and not easy for me to explain. :) if lone was in front of baby it would sound more natural to me. heeding to the words...i would leave out to is all for nobody's guess............i would write is all anybody's guess leave out for more suggestions: that, the baby acting only as a watch-dog! its move, signal for the siblings in wait, [its move signaled the waiting siblings: ' its all safe and good now, right time to go wet. ' ] ...........it's not its :) and get wet, not go wet...typos? ? i like the story and your theory about the watchdog effect. bri :)
Words of the leader. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
It's very good, Ramesh. Not what I expected to happen. The economical style is very effective in getting the message across clearly. And it's a good example of humans being ignorant of the way things work in nature. Did you actually see this happen?
The lines are condensed omitting the auxiliary verbs except in line 11 where 'is' is used as a separate syllable. All the living things/beings have their own ways of spying to protect themselves from the predators. Sun-bath taking turtles, sending their watch-dog/sentinel to see the dangers, waiting for the signal to get into the sea, like a great poet, the poet has revealed the truth that there is in-built mechanism in every being to live in this harsh world. Some of the lines are alliterative. There are no perfect rhymes at ends of lines but the poet has given as far as possible close rhyming words. A great poet is in the offing!
Let nature’s way do its task..... Significant poem, sir Siddartha..10+++
