Where Are We Headed?
Where Are We Headed?


Sitting in my armchair gazing at the stars
Wondering how big the universe is and how small we are,
We know it and yet we worry
Keep forgetting the fact and live in a hurry.
A flowing river has always made me wonder
Where did it arise and how did it meander,
Have you ever heard rain pattering and thought?
Ah! Such a blissful feeling cannot be bought.
We are dispirited owing to petty issues
And despondent after battles we couldn’t win,<
/p>
Not realizing that being unappreciative of what we have
Will only make us desolate within.
War, violence, everywhere
Squander the limited time we have in spare,
Inessential dissension has led to internecine strife
And humankind no longer cares for another human life.
Do we really desire to tread a path
And head towards an unhappy aftermath
We must take cognizance and make amends
Correct all the wrongs because our future depends.
