Nothing New Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon
Nothing New
Nothing New
A leaf fallen
The last leaf
of the calendar torn
A year has passed;
new year
is just another day
that brings us
more abhorrent news on wars
of more massacres
of more deaths of children
of more deafening cries
of greed, lust and cruelty.
But
definitely
nothing new
nothing new at all.

New Year is just the year that has passed spilling over…
Excellently expressed on war, death, and turmoil. Endless 10'S And Stars! ..+++++++++++++++++++++++++
For even in our darkest days Christ can bring, unexpected joy and light! .. And bring Hope! ..
Sadly true, new hardship, new pain, new sorrow, But Prayerfully Christ will guide us through the tomorrows! ..
Your poem is a sad commentary on the state of world affairs, but very true. Nicely composed.
Sad times give birth to sad reflections… Thank you Evelyn.
