Nature’s Blueprint: Balancing Laws and Wealth for a Greener Future
In a world where nature and mankind entwine, A tale of hope, where the sun and moon align. With laws that nurture, and economics keen, Sustainable development, the ultimate dream. Nature's canvas painted with hues so grand, Forests, oceans, deserts, earth's endless land. In the fragile balance, where ecosystems thrive, Laws stand as guardians, ensuring all life. Environmental laws, with purpose profound, Protecting the earth, with a watchful eye around. Air, water, and soil, they safeguard with care, For a world that's healthy, clean, and fair. But some may question, do these laws impede? The engines of growth, where industries lead. Yet herein lies a tale untold and true, Economics and nature, in harmony they brew. For sustainable development, the…
Thoughts of the Flawed – II
We never knew each other heart to heart, Never talked much, My views being misguided by what I thought to be true. Yet, at the moment fire enveloped your resting soul, and the heat seeped into your dry flesh, And your body became charred and melted, Turned into ashes, We were closer than ever. When I breathed in the air filled with the smoke of your burned corpse, We were one unlike before . - Rtr. Vibhavee Sarathchandra

Thoughts of the Flawed
When time comes to say goodbye, We cry to soothe the pain in our hearts, Am I less human because I shed no tears? We make no effort to see the living, Yet we find time to see the dead, Am I allowed to regret the lack of memories? The pain, the hurt, the emotional scars carved over decades, We forget them in a second, Am I foolish to repent over the mistakes of childhood? When Death visits and wraps his ghostly claws around my neck, Am I allowed to tell him no? Rtr. Vibhavee Sarathchandra
The Fool & the Priest
Once upon a time,lived a fool and a priest.Fool, who desire crime,with a heart of a beast. The Priest save him no prayer,but some wine & crumbs of bread.For his heart so heavy with desire,flames ignite the skin while he bled. Once upon a time,the Priest loved the Fool.Oneday,he forgot his church rhymes,and that was a change of rule. The Fool said,"My dear, dear FedyaI please to kill."And everybody could swear,it was wet in red down the hill Rtr. Chamodi Peduruarachchi
Which is the right path? The roads are now too foggy
When I was little, and knew nothing of the worldI was drunk with dreams, knew I'd make it to the top.Now I wonder: which is the right path? The roads are now too foggy,the starting line is dim and must be thorny.(The fairytales they poisoned us withare breaking us.)I'm Icarus who flew too close to the sunand burnt his wings;the fall has broken my back and I let out a wail.My dreams—they are like a kitethat is snatched away by the windalong with the ghost of me who wants to try.They are flying high—so high—out of reach from me. - Rtr.
