Divert Funds To Help Poor But Not Waste In Feasts And Wars! Poem by Ramesh T A

Divert Funds To Help Poor But Not Waste In Feasts And Wars!



After a feast in a big hall, a lot of food lie as waste on plates, tables and floor;
Likewise in the interval of wars, tanks, guns, vehicles and vans are stranded;
Wastage of food shows lavishness and stranded arms show as very old ones;
In the wars, military power nations leave old weapons stranded in war field!

Such warrior nations either sell old weapons to small nations going for wars
Or use all old weapons, tanks and vans in war with nations and leave behind;
That is the way they can induct latest and new weapons and vans in army;
Not knowing this, small nations buy old weapons and waste money in wars!

Lavish feast items and war weapons nobody likes for any other purpose later on sure;
Simple feast and minimum weapons of war are enough to manage at rare times;
But instead of doing so, to show their haughtiness, many waste funds in feast and war;
It is wise, if they help the needy and poor suffering in poverty by diverting such funds!

Old ways of solving problems by wars should be changed to settling by talks;
Humans should act as cultured and civilized ones but never as barbarians or beasts!
