Analysis of Forever green
Shashini Pabasara Kularathna 2007 (Kandy)
Plants are green
Wherever seen
Raising scrubs
Trees and shrubs
Can upturn green
To lean
And watch and chill
Deforestation
With detestation
Can downturn green
And decline nature
Fruits that are immature
Don't have a future
Let's save lands
And bring up plants
End up deforestation
And have devotion
Skip out detestation
And see forever green
