Poems: Utopia A Day of
Non-Violence Day of Thinking Best How Can We Help?
In vain -
A seed which couldn’t
germinate
A bud that didn’t bloom
into flower
A fish couldn’t swim freely
into water
A bird in a cage at the
mercy of the owner
An animal in the laboratory
away from nature
An unfortunate prey
waiting to be slaughtered
A pet lived alone among
people neutered
A body deprived of romance
leading to heir
A foetus aborted for
convenience of irresponsible lovers!
In vain -
Eyes without vision to
see everything everywhere
Ears which couldn’t
listen to sounds traveling in the air
A tongue without luck to
quench thirst and relieve hunger
Hands which couldn’t
work and grow a plant with care
A mouth which couldn’t
express joy of freedom in love
A mind that never wondered
about grandeur of universe
A nose could never
enchant brain with fragrance of flower!
In vain -
A heart which never
fell in love with compassion
A soul untouched by
others’ sufferings and celebrations
A leader who couldn’t
speak truth under oath for illusion
A voice that never rose
against war and oppression
A life eliminated by
abusive violence of violation
A human which couldn’t realize
universal notes of
Salvation!
