Blue teardrop

One early morning, I felt a teardrop
falling onto my face.
It came after a long dream about Nature
and about all the beauty of it.

But, in the dream, the beauty was gradually
replaced by ugliness.
Ugliness created by people.

I wiped off the teardrop
and I could see the blue colour of it.
The blue colour so typical of Earth.

It was a teardrop of Nature.

I became very much aware of the beauty
of Nature and of the ugliness destroying it.
My eyes filled up with tears
and my mind decided to become
a keen defender of Nature.

May all people everywhere one day feel
a blue teardrop of Nature on their faces.
May they be awakened to the beauty
of Nature that is all around us
and become keen defenders too.
