Nature vs. disaster

Nature vs. Disaster

by

Prof. Chandan Ghosh, NIDM

............... 

At the dawn of our civilization

Nature was the universal protector

We learned first the technique of catching

 Fire to cook our food for survival

Simply living with the Nature

Showering obeisance for the chance

Given to mankind to procreate

Helped us realizing our meaningful status 

As we grew in numbers and started

Looking for shelter at the Nature’s bounty

The challenges of living at par with seasonal

Changes drove us devising tools for living cosy

………

Disasters are no more Nature-made

They are the offshoots of our fast moving

Life style rushing to have more at our cap

Deleting the footprints of natural ambiance

As long as our development perspectives

Scale new dimensions in terms of buildings

Occupying horizontal and vertical spaces

Let’s reap energy as much as from the Nature

Let’s realise to stand against those

Deviations  among unassuming dynamics

Disturbing eco-systems and environment

Making everything on sustainable development

Let each region embrace the world order

Suitable to the local flora-fauna

Refurbishing all that we are taking

Making everything as close to the Nature
