Searching For God Poem by Nandhagopal Ramachandiran

As the quest for God gains currency,
There is a rush to browse the agency.
The thirst to crack the heavenly code
Sets the search for His safe abode.
Where is God? In fiction or fact?
In imminent dire straits, will He act?
The questions linger on and on,
And flood the websites from dusk to dawn.
The servers route the queries to
The domain of science and courts too!
As the God is sought from file to file,
The net is busy all the while.
It's quick to fly a rocket up
And blow the atom in the cup.
For illness in the filial mode,
The man would solve the genetic code.
Still the search for God is going on
And slows the system from dusk to dawn.

For the thirsty man with a coated tongue
And the boy with a cancer who is young,
For the hunger famine that cuts a meal
And the mental wound that fails to heal,
For the sweating humid hot weather
Where outdoor work gets together,
For the looming war and pirate zone
Where people are more illness-prone,
For the contagion that has fast swollen
Where ignorance is the main villain,
For the roofless shelter of any form
Facing fire or rainy storm,
For the driver on the road side
Losing legs or arms that ride,
Aid and hope are the holy facts:
Let's browse Him through these kind acts!
Then the divine queries will not linger on
Or clash in sites from dusk to dawn.
