Virtual World

Dr Pritish Chowdhury

The huge gigantic ball
Of diameter –    eight thousand miles,  
Today
Very tiny and miniature
Adorned and splendid   
In the playground of our minds!
 
Playing with it, at finger move
No matter,  we are,  how old and young,
Imprisoned ourselves
In  that colorful addiction!
 
Alas! Under the same  roof,
Ghostly silence – yet there is!
Seem we all like some funny aliens,    
Unknown  to one another
As if !

The vibrant thread - that binds   
Love  and emotion of our hearts   
Is, truly, today,
In her tragic old age!!
