Analysis of The Girl



The girl is no Greta-Thunberg, but absolutely
A rosebud, studying in class seven

Not Thunberg, but that teenager girl
knows Greta Thunberg
Heard his fight to protect the environment

The girl also loves the environment
That love is not a show
                         from within oneself

Intense heat of summer, the temperature exceeds 43
Dad's big wish is to buy an AC
But the girl won't let him buy anything

The girl knows that there is gas in AC
It pollutes the air
Heat is tolerable but pollution is not

The girl is not Greta Thunberg
Yet his small protest, if the environment
Even a little, can keep life alive

A little girl, her little protest
It will not be written in any history books
