Vines Of The Villages Poem by malini kadir

Vines of the villages
Entwined with little thought
Created by visions of believers
In a little after thought;


To break old thought patterns
To embrace the new changes
It did not come easy.
The believers were just a few.

But it only takes a few
To believe in what is right.
But not without a fight.

So where do we stand now?  
We're in the same boat.
Slowly we are sinking.
We can't stay afloat.

We needed new believers
To take up the lost fight
And lead us with newer vision
And true far sight; insight whatever!


Where are the believers to make a good decision?  
They've gone to the Promised Lands
And why don't they see?
As they look upon us all

They realise they are not free! !  
For the halter neck of reality
The defaulter on duty
Has made pictures seem sexy

To side track the man of visionaries
To waste time in accessories
Are you going to buckle under pressure?
Or are you going to rise beyond to treasure?

Your wish and will
Hurting heart the bill
Hope is there still
Lives to upgrade with skill
