Innovations witnessed. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Driverless taxi, self driven car,
no key, no steering wheel, no gear.
Driven by electronics, electric power,
no back horn, fitted with sensors.

Petrol replaced by CNG, hydrogen
gas,
very much eco-friendly,
emission less.
Tyres tubeless, speed higher,
flying cars, amphibious motors.
Hover bikes, google cycles,
hyper-loops, bullet trains.
Mercedes Vision AVTRS,
with air bags, journey safer.

Hypersonic vehicles, space shuttles,
enhanced speed in air.
Boats driven by a ferryman
with poles and oars
are almost substituted by
speed boats and cabin cruisers.

Telegrams useless, no money orders,
Cordless mobile every hand bears.
Needless to go to any bank,
all payments and receipts
are minute's work.
Messages, mails are easy and quick,
reach the receiver instantly
as a wink.
No more waiting before a doctor,
Tele- medicines are there to cure.

Cinema, sports, music, dance,
available at hand on
Television and mobile screens
at a glance.
Cooking by wood and coal
is almost over,
gadgets have made cooking
easier and speedier.

Schools and institutes
for any education,
may be useless due to
online apps and platforms.
Offices may be replaced
by work from home,
laptop, desktop, iPhone
are essential norms.
Tractors and power tillers
have replaced ploughs and oxen,
Work in fields needs less men.

Innovations have merits and demerits,
uses depend on how we wish.
Positive and genuine wishes
would make us happier.
Otherwise life may
become unhappy, bitter.
