Celebrating Earth Day, April 22


We live in an amazing world that inspires wonder.

Where variety is its splendour.

We are but new arrivals


part of its grandeur

living off of its lushness.

Yet how often is it that we stop

to admire the simple beauty

of verdant valleys

and luscious life

that take us away from the madness of a civilisation

that could care less

about the magnificent mother

whose benevolence is beyond compare?

Not often enough!

It is time we take stock of the vestiges of nature around us and ponder on the significance of its survival to ours.

Photos are from Gasing Hill Educational forest in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. A vestige of nature that was hard fought by the residents of the city to preserve. Taken March 27, 2016. Original photos are 20MP @ 180 res. If you like a copy of the original seen in this post just send me an email.
