Once I saw through the black hole
It was like Alice to Wonderland
There were many beautiful gardens
Like made by a magic wand
There were many large fields
Not of soil, but of sand
There were many stunning statues
Like made by a skilful hand
Written on a rock, there was
A message for us to understand
"This is not a world for you
It is 'our' only demand!"
And I stood there, wondering aloud
Why on us, that paradise was banned
A sound ripped across the sky
Explaining the reason of 'their' stand
"Humans are but a virus", it said
"Who, destroying everything, always expand.
The mother Earth is a victim, a prey
Of your foolish acts, evil and grand.
Owing to your demonic works
Its pretty face has been tanned.
With pollution and toxic wastes,
You burnt the nature, offhand.
You are not welcome here, O man!
For you will ruin its every strand!"

Writing has been a passion, a love ever since I learned to write. For me, writing is a means of expression of 'secret tears and secret pleasures'. True writing comes from the heart and often it is the one to find you, not you the one to find it. Writing gives me power, the strength to carry on, the will to live and to live in a better way. It helps me find deeper meaning in the world around me and to understand myself much better. I can't survive without writing. For me, my writings are the whispers of life, in which the glory and sorrow of life echoes. For me, these are the glittering tears, whose every flash encompasses a thousand aspects of life. I believe that, 'I write; therefore I am.' However, true ease in writing comes from art, and I still have to learn a lot about that.

Great Idea! farhana siddique | Jun 5th, 2004
"Humans are but a virus", it said

I agree to the core with what u said. The poem, undoubtedly, carries a great idea and the humans must take stock of their "deadly deeds".
Well-done! Awais
Keep the very spirit up.
