Analysis of Nature's Remorse

Kushagra Om Sharma 2022 (India)



You caged a bird and ripped it off its wings,
you will never again hear the sweet songs which once used to ring.
You tease it so that it may soar and fly,
but all you ever did was blatantly lie.
You cowardly put a mighty lion behind bars,
and cursed his life with a thousand scars.
The roars that used to thunder are now mere cries.
Even the beasts tend to wonder where our humanity lies...

About this poem

This poem was originally written by me for a class activity on animal cruelty. It was initially supposed to be a creative writing paragraph, but I found a poem to be more appropriate for the topic.
