Like Bubbles Floating In Torrent Flood

Rating: 5.0


Youth,
Wasted youth,
Future lost in filth and drugs,
So much pain and nothing gained,
Many, just zombies with no living hearts.

Though there is a bright sun shining out there,
They no more see the light,
Like windows closed,
And shutters tightly shut.

Give clear reasons to think...
or cups of spiritual honey to drink,
many had tried to fight...
But if we really want to win, must never give up!

These are stories told and retold with ending none in sight,
Begging, stealing, mugging, enslaved by the drugs...
it’s a pitiful and frightful sight,
like bubbles floating in torrent flood.

Do we have a solution?
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Very interesting poem, my friend. A very important issue. As long as the endless greed of corrupt powers is in place, we may not have a solution. But one day, my Sufi friend, I am so sure that the greed will crumble down and all will be well. Our world is changing extremely fast. Only few decades ago, there was no internet. This information revolution is now fully unfolding. The next one is the wisdom revolution. And I have great faith that the wisdom revolution is not so far away. A super ten for this thought provoking poem
