Gaia
Shreedher Lohani, Nepal (19944 -)
Summary in English
Gaia is a mythological, ecological and satirical poem. It is a symbolic or personification for earth. According to Greek mythology, Gaia is the Goddess for earth that is a natural system that controls itself and endures everything. The earth has always been nurturing her children with motherly love despite their reckless activities. Although her own children have made her weak and ugly, but she still loves her children. She endures all wars and all hunger. In addition, the earth has patience and endurance. She has great heart.
The strong warm wind blows through the withered palm trees. The devouring rain hits the earth. Then, the sea becomes violent and mad. The mountain peak has irregular shape. The powerful time plucks at the world on its thin gray wings. Moreover, the atmosphere of the earth is polluted with the full smell of the filthy fungus. There is sudden violence, disturbance, disaster and hunger everywhere in the earth. However, the earth (Gaia) tolerates all these pains and sufferings.
