Times are changing

Times are changing and so will we

The first lesson learnt is to let things be

This forced unpaid vacation has a heavy price tag

Levelling lives and lies individual stories are given a lag

 

Let nature survive and thrive on its own

Stop tweaking fruitlessly it’s yours on loan

Let animals respire in their ecological habitat

Stop aberrant trusteeship for a start

 

Let rivers and mountains continue on course

Stop changing its path its trajectory its source

Let greenery and wildernesses coexist even outlast

Annihilating forests will eliminate human race quite fast

 

Let cultivators and farmers live they are providers not felons

Greed control is critical not magnitude or square melons

Let children be children they do not have to match Einstein’s IQ

Each individual is unique try transmuting and you will rue

 

Let expectations be regular and regulars be accepted

Potential cannot be explored unless pressure is rejected

Let hope flourish confidence grow and trust easily given

When intentions are right most grievances are forgiven

 

Let smiles travel miles across caste creed and prejudice

Warm hearts cool minds gentleness and care is suffice

Let the lines on the face grow with grace and wit

Life is all about learning from day one to finish. Don’t quit

 

Let freedom be fair and responsibilities borne with courage

We may make mistakes along the journey keep room for entourage

Let laughter be full throated and smiles reach the eyes

We remain disadvantaged for every dream that dies

 

Let the skies reclaim its color let the waters detox and glow

Let creation in its full glory teach you all there is to know

Let the earth revitalize itself let us replenish the loam

That human footprint needs erasing in short, just go home

 

Let the senses sharpen in the silence of the night

Let the countenance be calm let your spirits be bright

Shorn of social jamborees and wasted chases for treasure

Recondition the quiet quarantine into a passive leisure
