Nonviolence, A Matter Of Dream Impossible! Poem by Ramesh T A

M K Gandhi lived as an example more than
His precept of simple living and high thinking;
Achieved freedom for our country, India in 1947
And has become a symbol for nonviolence ever!

Wearing a half dhoti as pant and towel over his
Bare body, he lived one among the mass pricking
The conscience of all Imperialists though famously
Criticized as fakir by British PM, Winston Churchill!

Agricultural, Industrial and Electronic revolutions
Have modernized world and civilized the life of man
By sophisticated technology, transportation, etc.....
Making man live mechanical life rather than human!

Still wars as uncivilized man, man wages against others
Making nonviolence a matter of dream quite impossible!
