Whole world may be sleeping with dead silence <br />The minds at rest with no more worries hence <br />Next day may bring new hopes to their life <br />World may find new horizons and witness no more strife <br /> <br />Whole year has passed with enough of blood shed <br />Millions have starved and met death while unfed <br />Many dictators have fallen victims to their own folly <br />People have rejoiced in the streets and enjoyed wholly <br /> <br />How many lost their lives in safeguarding our lives? <br />Countless and still not certain how many more may fear to relive? <br />Nothing can be achieved by merely expressing grave concern <br />The tragedy may knock your door one by one or in turn <br /> <br />We don’t know yet how the hell like life is enjoyed <br />How their dear ones are lost and houses destroyed <br />Who has wiped their tears and consoled the souls? <br />Life may return to normal as it may slowly crawl <br /> <br />It is painful to know the exact theory <br />Why at all so much cruelty and misery? <br />At what cost we are going to have upper hand? <br />Can we not have contentment and change in our trend? <br /> <br />I am no one to comment on it as have not suffered <br />Not gone out of hide outs and help offered <br />Yet I bleed with thousand of my fellow brethrens <br />It is grave matter and invites our deepest concerns <br /> <br />Aid in the form of wheat or material may help to some extent <br />But have we no reason to feel shame on humanity aspect and regret <br />That can we stoop so below and play with the precious lives? <br />Disregard for what our god fathers have left behind to preserve and believe? <br /> <br />I sincerely hope some thoughts may be given <br />You may think by giving some money it may be forgiven <br />It may grow with hidden hatred and ask for revenge <br />How then can we pray for and ask for the change? <br /> <br />Time is yet not gone out of hand <br />It is not necessary to find foe and friend <br />Let us make and build beautiful end <br />Where at place of time we feel it necessary to mend<br /><br />hasmukh amathalal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sleep-with-silence/
