POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I felt man is not satisfied today with, even, the rich heritage, all those inventions and discoveries, great men of the past, all these historic achievements, and developments. some kind of a hollowness. I am trying to collect some opinion from fellow bards.God Bless.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

.........even our poems over here are reflections of our idle thoughts emanated from the inner urge to sponsor ourselves as poets.. Nothing else other than our individual participation in the hunger alleviation can be at our disposal now. But towards a greater philosophy our predecessors could have directed us and perhaps they too were blundering in one way or another... A reminder poem indeed.
