Rudraksha - Lxxxi To Lxxxv Poem by Parameswaran Nair Damodaran Nair
Rudraksha - Lxxxi To Lxxxv
LXXXI
Listen to the sobs of grieving Mother Earth
Desperate and desolate, dejected and demoralised
By endless sufferings cast by man, your super creation
In imposture Imposing on her reckless servitude
LXXXII
Seeing man waging war against one another
For nothing eternal but for enticing ephemerality
Deep wounds of her disdained heart bleeds
For man's bereaved love, affection and gratitude
LXXXIII
Dig out from their tombs virtues, morals and ethics
Enemies strangulated and buried for selfish motives
When disasters march forth their way in victory procession
Remind them, the wages of betrayal are too hard to withstand
LXXXIV
Man, treachery and cruelty embodied, deprived of gratitude
Cut through the mother's bosom, that for them once lactated,
To dig out from the depths of hidden mines ceaseless treasure
And kicking and spitting at her mutilated body, desperated
LXXXV
The soul of Mother Earth hot with grief will cool down
The seas rising in raging vengeance will calm down
The thundering clouds will sheath their gleaming swords
When the prices of lost virtues are realised and love upheld
A poem of great depth. Wonderful, incisive and insightful. The opening lines alone will grip readers to go through with the whole write. Deep and touching words for Mother Earth.
Thank you poet sister. How long can we keep silence over the cruelties of man?
Earth’s pain are numerous watching the endless greed of humans. Damodaran Ji this poem of yours resonates with the pain that you feel for Mother Nature.... the pain that we all feel looking at the atrocities of humans.
Thank you very much Savitaji. Cruelties of man, not only to his fellow man but also to the nature, really pains me deeply. God alone is the remedy

Each and every stanza stands out and cries out man's cruelties and treacheries committed against Mother Earth. A vivid portrayal of man's greediness and Mother Earth's grief. The ultimate stanza gives a powerful warning to humanity. A great poem with a meaningful message.
Thank you dear poetess. Cruelties of man inflict deep wounds in the heart of mother earth whose pain is not at all given heed to.
