I stare at the solitary fish, the only one in the aquarium,
Swimming in true bliss… Aloof from the unrest of the current world
I envy her freedom in the tiny water glass,
As I have the entire earth to roam around but can’t move beyond the concrete walls
I was unhappy that I had no wings to fly,
Someone then created a metal bird supporting me to hop around
I thought I was invincible…
I felt I had everything…
My race then sneezed,
Annoying the sleeping mother Divine
She now has my ears squeezed,
I now wince in desperation with hands folded
Excuse me my mother,
For I have battered you
Give me a last chance,
To bring back your smile
Trust me as I have my daughter on my lap,
Who also wants to grow in your shade
I promise to distance her from anything man made,
To love, respect and never again make you weep,
I pay my obeisance to you before I and my family go to sleep !
