written on Earth hour of March 2008 <br /> <br />The earth is beautiful, green and blue <br />Wet with all the morning dew <br />The flowers all dancing in bloom <br />Filled with zest, no sign of gloom <br /> <br />While the rain is pouring <br /> Dark clouds are thundering <br />All the little children <br />Are singing and clapping <br /> <br />The red breast robin sitting on a lush tree <br />Singin a song with utmost glee <br /> <br />The wind so fresh and Oh! so cool! <br />Please excuse, do not feel like going to school <br />But to sit there and read all day <br />And rejoice the cool beautiful fresh air <br /> <br />Oh! may I ask, just why, is everything so splendid so bright <br />Under the sun's eternal glowing light!<br /><br />Ahvana Dutt<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beautiful-earth-beautiful-life/
