Oh Mother Nature I salute thee
By Ovara Perera, Bishop’s College, Colombo
Poem for the Week
View(s): Oh! Mother Nature, I salute to thee!
For everything you gave me,
From the biggest mountain to the tiniest dew,
From the lush green trees to the oceans blue.
To the fiery red sun to the whitest snow,
The flowers in summer to the autumn glow.
But the cruel hands of man and his wicked ways,
Will slowly take thy beauty away.
Oh! Mother Nature, I weep for thee,
As your beauty suffers in our world today…
One day, as time will show,
As all that you gave us may fade away.
Gentle Mother, I bow to thee,
With a solemn promise I shall care for thee,
Let’s preserve and conserve the gifts of nature,
And leave it to the future lives to nurture.
