ANIMAL KINGDOM (31) SAVE WILDLIFE

ANIMAL KINGDOM (31)Save Wildlife
********************************











He has killed his fifth prey-point blank,
Dead bodies are just laying at his feet,
With deep sigh,his vigil eyes turn around,
All alone -nobody to check,none to greet.

He is hunter, such entry in forest is crime,
Hunting animals is his business,his hobby,
Animal lives pay, for his means of living,
Innocent killing,is business of powerful lobby.

The deer,his female,three siblings lay dead,
Near the pool of blood,he stands with pride,
What foolish  deers proved to be-he thinks,
One killed,others calmly stand by the side!

The parents do not run,to save their children,
All what they do,is to stand, calmly to look at-
With futile hope to see their children breathe,
And for not running away, easy death  they get.

The fifth,an innocent one,touches the killer gun,
Tries to jump, lick the hunter with little tongue,
 Blinking eyes,seeing rainbow colours, all around,
Shaking ears,listen to the song,mother nature sung.

The new born just try to know meaning of life,
Bullet teach him,death is the truth-above all lies,
Dancing colours,singing breeze,his mother's lap,
All vanishes,before the first light,kisses his eyes.

Dawn is slowly knocking at the door of darkness,
There will be no any proof of dead bodies-all five,
 Prey will disappear, nature reveal  beauty of forest,
By roadside,a signboard will flash-"Save Wildlife".

ANIMAL KINGDOM (25) Run,run,and run

Run,run,and run
---------------------------

The female deer was just dying,
Due to bleeding from bullet shot,
Holding, kissing her fran in her lap-
-lost her survival battle-she fought.

She peeped into her infant's  eyes,
Image of her dying body emerged,
Last feeding to her child finished,
A sharp, thin,slow cry,  was heard.

She blinked her eyes,all vanished,
Christal clear horizon was there,
She died.Infant left her, stood-up,
She was there: she was nowhere.

The infant was taught since birth-
"Death is chasing you, to kill you,
 Always run fast,as much you can,
Death spreads arm,you be in queue."

He stood-up, and looked all around,
His mother had gone,he to replace,
To play his role on this mortal stage,
No time to mourn,in game of chase.

One, and only one way,
For survival-try and try,
Run,run,run--and run,
Life to win,death to die.
