Quo Vadis
The earth cries to the ephemeral being
Who prances as if an eternal thing!
“ Quo Vadis, don’t you know the end of this?
Halt, before it’s late and all goes amiss”.
Heed the cries of torment that rend the air.
Behold the hollow eyed, who’s your brother.
Feel the tremor that sets your feet tremble.
And perceive, unless you turn, you’ll tumble.
The woodlands are dying. So are the brooks.
The buzzing bees and the warbling sky larks
The calm of a pool and a tranquil lake
Could all be yesterday, unless you wake.
The love for sweet nature you’ve forsaken
The codes of your forefathers you reckon
Absurd and you have tarnished glitter
From little eyes to fill them with bitter.
“it is not so late” says the Mother Earth
The light’s still there within. There is no dearth.
Blaze it up before it blurs and fades out.
Make the Maker rejoice and let bliss spout.
