The Creator’s Masterpiece by Sharmista Banerjee

The Creator’s Masterpiece
From the hands of the creator, billions of creations do arise.
Whether they’re repulsive beasts or beauteous skies,
But among these innumerable creations, there’s one that surpasses every other,
She is the Creator’s Masterpiece, we call her Mother Nature, Earth’s one supreme Mother.
She gives and she takes,
She loves but she doesn’t hate.
The glorious green grass and the large beauty-bountiful trees make up her silent children,
While the roaring and howling, moving and growing creatures, the animals and humans, make up her energetic children.
The beauty of Mother Nature is diverse, you can see it in the fruits of her trees,
Or the coolness of her breeze,
And the smooth and patterned fur of a glorious animal,
Or the wit and ruthlessness she shows in her self-made calamities, a payback to the humans who destroy everything natural.
To feel this beauty, we must employ our five senses to work conscientiously,
There’s just so much to see and discover excitedly.
So come, let us grow and preserve nature more and more,
With love and care, or else as we’re told by lore,
Our destructive actions on nature will be horribly consequential.
Let us become completely conscious or we’ll have to be forced to become penitential.
