Sitting under the tree
Watching stalks fall
I realized the wonder
Of Nature’s design…
Soon the birds will
Come and gather them
To build their nests
I knew it heralded
The breeding season…
Soon we will see
The engineer architect
Builder owner
Put Nature’s bricks
In place to make
A comfortable
And secure home
And invite there
His mate to see
And approve…
Wonder this individual
Without formal education
In engineering, architecture
Design or building
Constructing a palace
For his consort
Without cement or lime
Steel or stone
Ferrying material
It knows useful
Working by itself
Turning dry stalks
Into a palace
Better than the
Hawamahal of Jaipur…
Only we humans
Depend on others
But live worse
We broke out of
Nature’s cycle.
The egg descends
Like an alien
Complete with
Special food pack
To survive initially
While on its
First space walk
On planet Earth.
Wonder the automation
The skills, capabilities
Matching neatly
artificial Intelligence
Created by us…
The breeze stops
I need to go
I experience
Such revelations
Very often
I feel happy
Calm inner peace
Moments of weightlessness!
