The humans have gone digital,
They like to read from their PCs or Mobiles,
The E-books, E-stories, E-poetry and E-what not,
Always, immersed in ‘Google Search',
Always looking for quick remedies,
Everything easy, ready-made and handy!
Let me make a beginning with old books,
Let me peep into the beautiful old libraries,
Let me pick up good books and start reading,
Let me enter the minds of great authors,
Let me drink in the nectar of knowledge,
Let me learn the secrets of a meaningful life on earth!

It's a good satire when man has switched over from physical to digital content searching. A lovely graphic with an interesting reminder to find joy of reading books as we used to do earlier. Thanks, Geeta ji.
