A Joy Ride Poem by Hans Raj Sharma

Youngsters are angrier than ever
Can't parents be blamed for...?
But, violence against innocence
Virtue and creativity is not new
Its history goes by the present
With certainty of future too-
Dealing with themes of morality.

Memory offbeat having raised hopes
Of revival of normal moral behaviour
Living to tell courageous tales-
Deep in the inner chambers of mind.

Wonderful stories of loneliness
Being, about acceptance and love
Lonely, beyond glitters of fragrance
Fragrance from gardens of kindness.

A testimony to decaying glory-
Needs steps to create trust and faith
When, the pot of brain is boiling hot
Bans get brutal, fire on the stage-
A glimpse into life and history
To make teens of nation self-reliant
Deeds and images making a legend
More reasons to love that creation.

As such, beauty comes for a price
Let's laugh with designs that wow
Creating connections, bringing back
Joys of reading faces, writing pages.

Mystery unfolds asking for
The complements behind the scenes
New hilarious offerings for a joy ride.
