It's time to write about life

It’s time to write about life

It’s less focused facets

Away from the lilting romance

Away from the mad money making et.al.,

There lies the true charm and bliss!

It’s time to seek the stashed away jewels

The mountains unexplored

The valleys unraveled

The rivers unspoilt

Where nature is untouched

Where solitude and sereneness

Reign supreme in sublime pastures

It’s time to sympathize with hapless women

In dens of vice forced by the blind society

To work for their liberation

It’s time to go to the lands of poor

Where starvation is the order of the day

Time to raise resources to make them eat

Nutritious tasty food just like all others

It’s time to feel human, act human

It’s time to care for the homeless

Abandoned, aged and destitute

Lend voice and meaningful action

To see they are taken care of

To live in comfort like all others

It’s time to think of farmers, absent rains

The relentless drought that ensues

It’s time to plan to tackle water scarcity

To implement measures to preserve

Water for the future for hard times

It’s time to act on farmers’ deaths

Time to end their debt traps

Time to ensure fair prices for their produce

World thrives by the food they cultivate

Let them thrive too, let us do out bit, right?
