and shells we gather!

Shells we admire and shells we gather!

Shells we talk of , of shells we  blather!

We give to our shells , the best we can

How concerned we all are  , altogether!

Out of love we pay to them, more heed

Ply them with foods , they do not need!

And habits , that they'll regret , later on

And pills, they otherwise wouldn't need!

God has bestowed upon us, this trophy

Which abounds in,  mysteries  uncanny.

It thrives best when nature nourishes it

You are right , I talk of this unique body!

We can make it good, better &  the best

On the flip side, bad, worse & the worst.

Choice is ours, we have all the freedom

To reach sublime heights , in this quest!

Don't you  say , muscles are the answer!

Show me a  muscle that  doesn't pother!

Muscles are dumb, dry, deadened wood

Meant typically to fuel an invented war!

Muscles get lifted for war, pain perdures!

Moola's sucked into war, penury endures!

Where is Plato's Philosopher? Eh , where? 

Obtusiveness is all here! Misery  obdures! 

And war? Does anyone  ever need a war?

And how can a human being talk of war?

Who wins a war? Everybody loses in war!

Humans got to be inhuman to win a war!

All we need is to synchronize with nature

Moon and sun, sky and earth, and, the air!

They cherish us, nourish us, keep us alive

We've forgotten nature , our sole nurturer!

Revive squatting for all the buzz of nature

You shall roll back ill earned ills of future!

Nature didn't send you with an appendage

I know my voice pricks ye like it's a suture!

It is stupid to think we've won over nature

Let's forget trying to be smart with nature! 

Our smartness rests on  money & musket 

Our smartness makes the marts  smarter!

Markets boom, space loses all its silence

Faces turn haggard and lose all brilliance!

Progress doesn't look like  making sense

Shells become drier and lose all essence!

We need to be reverential towards nature!

Body is two third water. Water is nurturer!

Further, water can read our thoughts also!

So let us beware and seek water's favour!

Shells tick by the light, of the sacred one!

Which is thin as air, hence visible to none!

Humans do crystallize , this angelic light! 

And one who does so , is the ecstatic one! 

Om Shantih
