Nature is a selfless teacher

Name: Filton D'Costa

Class: 6

Nature is cool, nature is calm,

And doesn’t anyone harm.

But when we cause harm to nature,

It shows us its toughest picture.

 

Nature is green like a flowing stream,

In which it teaches us the act of giving.

Not to discriminate among people,

But to create humanity and equality among all people.

 

Nature is God’s gift

In which it doesn’t demand any greetings.

But we keep on harming nature,

With lots of bad wordings.

 

For humans, nature is like a teacher,

It pours out its love and care like a river.

The love is unconditional and unending,

Which no one can even dream.
