Animal Freedom [Double Rengay and Collab]

by Amreen & Khalid M Darwish   Dec 10, 2012


Loaded Noah's Ark -
Animals and birds, a trust
hanged in his necks.

Pinch self to truth. Now God
proposes, man disposes.

Animal species -
killed or left captivated
just for fun and greed.

Deprived of basics -
their freedom's exploited,
their value ignored.

Unless action is taken,
rare types become endangered.

Their non-existence
will affect the food cycle
and ecosystem.

Part of solution -
compensate their lost freedom,
away of prison.

Empathizing their status,
ceases contact barrier.

Natural reserves -
protect them from extinction
as a replacement.

And a word to share -
liberalize animals,
A right which they own.

A way to free them again,
for what was wild should be freed.

As cages are meant -
for those who are guilty and
not for innocent.

    I really missed reading and commenting on your poems, you know its just one of those things when one spontaneously goes on break not intentionally. So am back now, *winks*
    I love reading nature and animal poems. It just stirs this fulfillment in my heart and makes me exult. That's one of my favorite themes.
    Its good to see you wrote a collab with Khalid, how inspiring.

    I love how you started the poem by incorporating the archaic teachings; Biblical and Islamic. That gave the poem a degree of magnitude and piousness. And it also tells us how imperative it is to consider the subjects conditions.

    You bought to surface about all the travails faced by animals on earth. Subjected to diverse torment because humans have high precedence amongst Gods creations. So man tends to forget we're suppose to be the caretakers of these animals. Due to such carelessness and negligence some have gone extinct and others without coming up with a protection culture that'll sustain and revive their lives, they'll cease to exist.

    Providing them with habitable biosphere is a way of curbing the problem not subjected to unfavorable habituation.

    I enjoyed reading this and its a breathe of fresh air.
    Keep churning great pieces together.
    God bless your heart for been empathetic to animals!
    :-)

    I truly love this. I'm a huge animal rights supporter, so I totally agree with everything said.

    This is the first poem that I've read that has touched on this topic, it's nice to see something unique and touching with a great message.

    The ending is superb and so true. Such a wonderful collab, guys!
