nature disappeared
I can feel the wind against my chin
 I can see the moon in its glowing skin
 O the cricket's song
 They are ready to sing all night long
 I can see the stars twinkle in the sky
 Up above the world so high
 I can hear some kids cry and shout
 I don't know what about
 I look around and wonder
 As i hear the thunder
 Now its all a hush 
 Yet I feel a rush
 There is no one around
 Its a special joy i have found
 I can feel the nght's bliss
 But there is something amiss
 It was a mango tree right ahead
 I could see it from the window by my bed
 It stood still in the moonlight 
 It had seen many a days many a nights
 Had been standing there for ten years or more
 I had been watching since I was four
 Now I am fifteen
 The tree has been cut , the area clean
 A house will be made there 
 New people will be shifting here
 I can still gaze out of my window
 And watch the night's show
 Like that tree many others have disappeared
 Never to reappear
 But I will have to rejoice with the rest 
 Live my childhood at its best
