Life Beneath
written by: NNANE NTUBE

if only eyes could see;
beneath this very soil
silence breathes,
beneath this very soil
roots strive to grow
if only eyes could see;
life beneath that yearns to live
despite man’s unholy schemes.
plants do feel pain.
plants too have rights.
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
It’s our duty to protect our environment. Let’s do it because the environment needs us not because we need the environment.
