What is a birthday?
Is it the day I was born?
Does it mean the process of being?
Is it the reason of my existence?

I watch in despair the day celebrations
Animals are slaughtered
Birds, are not spared either
Trees are destroyed in the name of celebration.
Birds' homes are destroyed
They construct their nests under the house roofs
The earth is denied clean air
A bare, lifeless rock remains in the name of earth.
Animals die due to lack of vegetation
Devil-wind blow across the land in celebration
Rivers dry up
Sentencing aquatic lives to death
Is it the celebration of life or death?
โฆ โฆ โฆ
Today, I choose to celebrate my existence
The concept of doctrine of Green mind
To create a home for birds
To find a solace in Trees
To give nature its own
That I stole
To give than to receive
I choose a BIRTHDAY TREE.
I choose a BIRTHDAY TREE.
