The trees swaying to the breeze br Butterflies flying hither and thither br Millions of radiant colors everywhere br But oh! Where is the TIME to see? br Chirping birds sing melodiously br The waves of the ocean slap the rocks br Nature conjures up a symphony br But oh! Where’s the TIME to hear? br Fragrant scents fill the morning air br As the flowers bloom just as dawn arrives br And the first drops of rain touch the golden sand br But oh! Where’s the TIME to smell? br Oh yes! There is no time br To stop and admire the marvels of nature br But we seem to have all the time in the world br To destroy from what has been provided to us br In the name of ‘modernizing’ and ‘technology’ br But when Mother Nature brings her wrath upon us br We flee like rats- who will save us now? br br Risha Ahmed (11 yrs)br br Risha Ahmed (12 yrs)br br
