While many people are making resolutions for this year, 2015, I'm not making any, but will keep the old one--to keep physically fit and healthy. At the same time, I have only a wish: WORLD PEACE! This poem is dedicated to all my readers all over the world and to my high school classmates.
Nature providing a symphony
State of – Nirvana
You inhale, I exhale
Together we are but one mind
neither suffering, nor desires
nor sense
of oneself
Let’s find
an idyllic
place where
there is total
Enlightenment
Equality of men and complete
trust with each other without
provocations nor malice, only
then, and only
then shall we
achieve peace…without these
qualities, we are doomed to war,
persecutions, hunger and pain.
Don’t blame
government.
Its constituents—that means you
and me, and the rest of the world
chose those people that run them.
I
still
believe
and not losing
hope that my dream
of peace will someday
be achieved, if not in my life-
time but for generations to come.
I’m afraid such grand ambitions could
only be successful, if we cut down the roots
of all evils. That would mean extermination—
total annihilation of human population. I’m hoping
there is a much better way of alternative solution…
If only philanthropists, poets like us
and other think tanks could be spared
to spearhead a new way of thinking in:
Geopolitical
Institutional
Unilateral
Biological
Metaphysical
Technological
Environmental
If this could be achieved, then there is
a great chance for us to achieve peace,
just because a new mindset will be born.
How sweet it is to savor the taste of
everlasting peace! Free at last from
the jagged nails of tyranny, fear of
terrorism and
ebola outbreak,
as well as other deadly viruses we
can think of. Imagine if everyone
around the world is living without
hunger, pain and
fear of persecution,
then the world would be a better
place to live. There would be no
more worries because of PEACE!
