Life- invigorating, God-gifted fresh air
Lung- ravaging , choking cigarette fumes;
Pot- belly- inflating sedentary life style
Sturdy feet that daily tread many a mile.
Life richly engendering rain and sun
Health- wrecking smoke and pollutants;
Life-renewing , ever freshwater rivers
Disease and death peddling city gutters.
New throbbing life- creating conjugal love
Budding life callously nipping abortionists;
Lawn grass coolly showering water sprinklers
Smashing, flattening, remorseless bulldozers.
Care- dispensing angelic nurses’ hands
Ravaging, ravishing child abusers;
Consecrated religious uplifting the poor
Grabbing, greed-driven business houses.
Brother/Sisterhood, harmony promoting gurus
Hatred, venom spewing, rabid god- men;
Peace-loving, serenely living small nations
Arrogant, bullying power- crazy war lords.
Life’s battle is between makers and wreckers
Rally with the makers, shun the wreckers.
