What If... Tomorrow! Poem by Sumita Jetley

In a village far, where the lights don't glow,
No rushing cars, no Wi-Fi flow.
A friend sat still, with time to see,
The world untouched, just simplicity.

No buzzing phones, no tech in hand,
Just trees, the sky, and quiet land.
Face-to-face, with words unhurried,
No need to chase, no reason to worry.

'Civilization, ' he softly said,
'Is more than tools and comfy beds.
It's courtesies and standards bright,
The things we miss when out of sight.'

So now I ask, in this fast-paced race,
What would you miss in that quiet place?
The little things you hardly see,
Until they're gone—what would they be?
