Quest
Free from man
The sun comes out,
Spraying light over the valley,
The trees are all covered in mist,
As I sit here up on a hill,
Observing in peace, Nature's tryst with me.
The sound of silence is truly melodious,
Birds chirping
Barren rocks, dry grass
Nature here is absolutely free.
Free from waste, free from spoil,
Free from all destruction,
Above all why it survives,
Is because it is free from man.
Nothing remains, nothing at all,
The path of destruction, tread so far by man.<17,0m,0m><18>
Despair sediments, one by one,
As in water,
Like granules of sand.
I am not a poet, nor an activist,
I just realise the mistakes we have made,
All we can do is waste no more,
And preserve the foundations that nature has laid.
