Dream

Rajnikant V Trivedi

I am on the long tour –
the itinerary is too lengthy and cubersome –

I am not alone,
the carvan is accompanying me –
And all of us are at cross roads –

On one lane
After a few minutes journey –
Here time factor is correlated –
there is, at a stone throw distance
there is certainly the possibility of
wholesome destruction !!

And one another lane,
it is the long journey
of permanent nature of
centuries yet to be borne!!

Devil is hovering on the heads of
leaders heading the caravan, who
recommend to opt for the first lane –
which is short, sweet and enticing!!

Very few persons having no selfish
interest preach for the second lane –
even after accepting threats from
devilish leaders!!

And the life is stagnant at the crossroads
where journey of caravan is standstill –

This is, perhaps, the state of affairs
of the modern world!

Don’t you agree?
