In the twenty-six poems, interestingly there is a multimodal rebellious voice or a sort of outcry advocating for the surrounding environment that has been grossly exploited at the cost of life of millions of plants, trees, birds, animals, the five ethereal elements and the natural habitat. It has gone to such an alarming state that the cosmic powers like the sun, the moon, the seasons and all the gifts of nature have become defunct hinting at the loss of natural traits of human being and sheer destructive consequences of this artificial life. The greedy and ignorant human beings have been destroying the irrecoverable surrounding natural wealth in such a way leading to unspoken disasters. Consequentially, it searches for the dire need of water, wind, food, livelihood and many more things as a part of natural lifestyle and sustainability. What’s more, the denatured human being is in search of the aesthetic notions in every aspect of natural life. In this way, each of the poems carry in them rhetorical questions representing in fact the questions of each of us linked to our survival.
