GREATEST GIFT
GREATEST GIFT


Know not why we nations war causing terror and loss of life;
Beyond the comprehension of warring nations the reason for strife
Even as we see the innocent,the children,the mothers lose;
Families separated by new boundaries by force without any truce
Rendering refugees in thousands in their own mother-land;
Warring leaders seen justifying the nation's last stand
Ravaging man-made structures down to mother earth;
Crippling economy to conceive poverty's birth
Fully awar
e though of aftermath of dire consequences galore;
Is it personal goals of terror-crats or over-ambition
For vested interests naming it valour
Rendering thousands as orphans whose eyes reflect unending pain;
Yet trudging on uncertain path of life
With hope in their hearts like parched earth for rain
If only realisation dawns-what we are at war with
Are not nations nor humans but the greatest gift of Creator-'Humanity',
Realisation be the path to ensure a stop
To this with profanity
