Wish list!

 

 

Friends! What I want?

Most of you don’t even dare to ask -

Lest authority labels it as madness or terror!

If you had my wish list around

Communities, cities, countries, continents, emperors -

Would make a very different world!

 

God has given us everything

Still we ask for more and more, begging!

With doubts and fear of losing

Disposable knowledge, status, glory;

Belongings gathered in a cell of privacy!

 

Days, months, years, repeat again and again -

My humble wish list remains the same!

Buried under over industrialization

Untouchable in media of market orientation!

 

I want to be around

When humans hymn the slogans -

‘In a world full of grains, fruits, milk and honey

One hungry stomach is too many’!

‘In a land filled with corporate space, estates and money

One homeless without a place is too many’!

 

I want to see a world

Where humans are in high moral

Respecting their pray and exploits,

Without ever feeling in pride -

Its survival of the fittest!

 

I want to see the day

Humans coexisting same way

Animals and birds live in proximity

Without ever killing their kind any way!

 

When true religions evolve spiritually yet logically -

 Universal God can only love all beings evenly!

Showering eternal blessings incessantly -

Never rewarding or punishing any form one-sidedly!

 

Mind enjoys happiness, soul feels rewarded -

Staying tuned to bliss-link despite earthly mandate!

Frustration, anxiety, disease, fear, bring despair -

Whenever greed, ego and anger make one blinded!

 

Satan has no meaning to God!

Evil prevails when a mind is blocked!

Satan and evil disappear

In the light of mercy and love!

I want to see Satan-less minds

Diminish evils with truth and trust

Facilitating return of ‘The Lost Heaven on Earth’!

Now tell me, isn’t it too much?
