A Change For The Good Or Bad? Poem by Ramesh T A

A Change For The Good Or Bad?

Rating: 5.0


Battle after battle Napoleon fought and had won also
But unfortunately nobody knows about his genius now!
Shakespeare and Milton achieved much in literature
But nobody bothers and follows their tradition now!
Advanced countries were top in science and technology
But they have been superseded by second line countries!
USA and USSR were super powers for many decades
But they are superseded by India and China now!
Old order is changing to new order everywhere
But in the new set up the quality is in doubt always!
Previously there were structure and substance in poetry
But now broken pieces in the name of poetry are fascination!
All the changes taking place are for good or bad?
Quantity has increased but quality has decreased in all!

I love your frank and honest expressions, especially your last line! People try to fill up the pages, perhaps to get into that famous - 'top 500'? ! I was not even aware of it till the other day! When my friend from Gujrat all very excited, - messaged me about it! RAMESH JI, YOU HVE ALREADY HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD, - THERE ARE MORE CROWS THAN BARDS! 10! -Raj

hi friend you can post my message as iam having big trouble in posting my comments and no one to help..loved your topic today which mixed poetry with science..true words for each one, there is a day for each one... today your are the first tomorrow you will be the last mainly if you didnot continue to nurture your creation and if you failed to cure your wounds or learn from the fall.a true thing about poetry which increased in quantity and decreased in quality but all that which lack quality will evaburate tomorrow, , , about the rules and regulatiion of poetry i think the sweet creative poetry has to be with no specific shape as much as it pentrates the readers hearts and leave an beautiful image ad trace in his longing mind..as much as it feed some hunger of his passionated needs where he start to ask for more and more of that poets words..that time we say for who left effect on some one heart and some others mind that he is a poet..the poet is the one who make some change in any way or any aspect of this life......regards By Tamara Jay Hanaring
