Let us make up our mind

Gems of Poesy





No motor, no microscope


Can smother me with beaming hope



No bungalow, no limousine


Can ever make you cute and keen



No computer, no laser beam
  

Can inspire any lovely dream



Neither flower, nor butterfly


Can promise me a peaceful sky



Neither the quarks, nor the leptons


Can give you soothing solutions



No satellite, no soaring flight


Can raise us to the real height



Till on the earth, we, the mankind


Solemnly make up our mind




That we shall never make a hell


With any bomb or any shell



That we’d never shed our blood


To immerse in diabolic flood



That we will save humanity


With patience, faith and sanity

I do wish this poem could be a reality.
Can it ever happen, I honestly don't
know. We can only hope. Well written.

Iqbal, a commendable piece of writing. Yes, ideally this would be wonderful.

Well put. Nice thoughts, hopes...eloquently expressed. But are humans really strong enough to save themselves?
