In three days more, the old year ends!
To most it seemed, it sped off fast;
The New Year's still afresh in minds;
But I'm happy this year was good.
Some things happened that caused some, harm;
The threat of major wars looms high;
A lot of people took their lives;
Some fishermen are missing still.
But Nature's fury none prevent;
Our gains in science help us predict;
Man's actions could be causing some;
We must preserve our Earth to live.
New gadgets could destroy the earth;
Protect the environment, all must;
Pollution must be stopped somehow;
A safer world is primal need.
Why waste vast sums in many ways?
Health of body, mind, soul is prime;
The sea is not for dumping wastes;
The Space is not for objects rife!
Commune with God and God will help;
Our soul and life are precious most;
The God of goodness hates evil;
Just love supreme keeps world a(l) right.
Fondly dedicated to my beloved 1974 CMC CBE Medico Batch
