Not anew idea



Not new idea

It is not a new idea or concept
 It was most appreciated one and secretly kept
 As a powerful weapon in the time of crisis
 So much can be said and laid the emphasis

 Not a one religion may prefer to be intolerant
 From their teachings and verses it is apparent
 No one has dared to violate it with adverse comment
 It is considered as sin at later age to repent

 Entire universe is created with divine consent
 There may be many objects with different contents
 Each with full promise to live and let others live
 This is agreed upon and we all shall have to believe

 It is His world and we are just emissary
 We all need to take care and consider it necessary
 This gives rise to the principle of tolerance
 For years together it has maintained its essence

 Have we not seen the result of intolerance?
 Bloodbath all over with situation very tense
 Human lives lost for no significant gain
 All those precious years have gone into vain

 God sent many prophets, messiahs and messengers
 They presented smiling world with no anger
 What did they want to see in this troubled world?
 Peace and harmony with love to be practiced and be told

 How much land can you control?
 How much will it demand as human toll?
 Colossal waste with immense loss of human lives
 Or no worthy place to be enjoyed and relived

 We can't shape entire globe as per our choice
 How can as god's children we can suppress the voice?
 Let them live and shape their own life's destiny
 How will it affect the culture and religions of many?

 There is need for overhaul change in thoughts
 The barbaric wars are unnecessarily fought
 No one has gained from wars that are full of blood
 In both the ways they have to suffer and face the shortage of food

I hold technical qualification like Diploma in Radio/engineering .I have done English and Hindi stenography as well. I had mastered the art in Morse telephony too. I am associated with several welfare organizations and served long time as Union leader too. I am at present working as hobby writer. I write poems on various subjects and invite suggestions from all the quarters. I have written one memoir named “As I see it” and ready for publication. One interesting part of writing I would love to share with all my reader friends. I am not sure weather it may be the same case with all as I do not want to be caught in any controversy. When I sit on my personal computer, there is absolutely no thought in mind as to what is to be picked up as thought and written. These all things I leave it to the discretion of almighty to fill my mind with relevant ideas. So far I have been graced by Him and as result able to compose about 4000 poems.
