Unconditional Friendship with Nature......

Hi Everyone

   As we all know, Wild life and Jungles are being overexposed by Nature Enthusiasts & Media. Now the time has come to think beyond photographing wild life.

   What steps can be taken for the conservation? 
Well I know its a BIG QUESTION and may not be answered quickly. But what can be done by nature lovers like us beyond clicking the snaps and clean ups?

   We don't harm nature when we go in wild; but how to educate the 'MASS' who don't know their basic responsibilities? who honk in core areas... 
who litter... who drink.... and beyond all these disciplinary things what can we do in the welfare of nature?

   Here I have expressed my thoughts on the current situation through a small poem.
Would like to know your views. By sharing ideas, we can start a movement...




निरपेक्ष मैत्री, 'निसर्गाशी'!


सगळ्यांच्या फोटोंना मिळायलाच हवेत का 'Awards'?
आणि प्रत्येक 'Outing' ला मिळायलाच हवेत का 'Kadak Shots'??


एखादी 'Safari' होऊदेकी वाघ दिसल्याशिवाय...
तो 'न दिसण्यातली' हूरहुर अनुभवण्यासाठी !


चाऊदेत डास करकचून...
फुलपाखराचा फोटो मिळवण्यासाठी!
किंवा, जाऊदेत एखादा दिवस फुकट...
एकही फोटो मिळाल्याशिवाय!


एखादया दिवशी 'View Finder' शिवाय,
टिपूदेत डोळ्यांनाच असंख्य 'Frames'!


जाऊया कधीतरी जंगलात, कुठल्याही 'अपेक्षेशिवाय'...
मित्राचा घरी गप्पा मारायला जावे तसे!
नुसतेच फुलपाखरांच्या मागे हुंदडण्यासाठी...
आणि पक्षांचे गाणे ऐकण्यासाठी...
निसर्गाशी निरपेक्ष नाते जोडण्यासाठी!
