Amoeba Messages Poem by Rekha Mandagere

Amoeba Messages

Rating: 5.0


Once man was gifted with great time and mind
To feel for fellowman’s joys, miseries with no foul
Those were the glorious moments only to find
Life in full, spirits in zeal and relationships in soul
Full of glories, victories and flair for Hanuman tales

This Digital age man found busy every moment
Slave of comforts, hurried life, passes heartless comment
Dressed Half, fed half and giving others half a smile
Sour at heart but sweet tongued talk spreads a mile
No great deals, witnessing an age of Amoeba messages!

Beautiful poem indicating the degrading moral values in the society. The rise of cosumerism has pushed back the old values of the society. Today's man is running after wealth and luxuries. He has forgotten his aim why he is sent in this world. I like the way you have composed the whole poem. Very poignant write indeed. Thanks for sharing..... A fine......10

This is so true. Time is such a constant message of speed and a servant of capitalism, I thank God I am not a materialist and my only concern is for a time to dream and create poetry. Thank you for this lovey write. Ron.

Amusingly fascinating... Well observed my friend, people give amoebic gifts... Hanuman tales, is it the Hindu God?
