World Poem by Aarushi Chatterjee

World endless, boundless, dreamless
World full of black brown white
World so vast unimaginable
World full of darkness and light.

Cities, mountains, lakes and valleys
Rippling streams and tumbling dreams
Voices of thousands of voices calling
Silence, stars and bright sunbeams.

A world too cruel, sometimes too kind
A world too big for my untamed mind
A world befuddling with people muddling
A world with sweetness, with crushing grind.

A world that sings of word and deed
A world with varying caste and creed
A world of joy, sometimes terror and thrill
Where people help in need or kill.

A world that's plunged into despair
Surfacing at times for gasps of air
A world of wonder, a world too vast
Where God made His people to last.
