Love to Coexist

Love to Coexist.

P K Routray

In thick forest

trees, minute to mammoth,

new born to decayed and old

amidst cobwebs of twisted bushes,

twining creepers

competing to touch the sun and sky,

some parasitic, some symbiotic

with flowers of

sweet and foul fragrance,

with fruits nectarous or poisonous

testing bitter, sour or sweet

denying some the life energy

from the sun and the air,

water from the rain and earth

germinate, grow and exist together.

In the forest, on the land

in water of ocean,

living creatures,

micro organism toblue whales,

ants to elephants,

deer to tigers,

preys to predators

timid to ferocious

stay and love to stay together.

Like plants and animals.

man irrespective of nature,

characters and traits

caste, colour and creed

education and profession

dull, clever and wise,

dynamic and lethargic,

oppressor and oppressed

stay and love to stay together.

All love to coexist.
