Ground of Formless Realities - Ground Zero

Ground of Formless Realities Ground Zero AN APPEAL TO MAKE IT ONLY A GANDEN OF GOD- A PLACE OF PEACE AND NON-VIOLENCE ONLY. ( The poem is dedicated to all those who lost their precious lives on 9/11) My heart aches and emotions start bleeding Remembering the pain and agonies of those Who lost their lives, while we all remained watching only? Cursing the helplessness, that we Could not do any thing to save A life, a tear from eyes of mothers and wives; Brothers, sisters and lovers or beloveds. Or the dear ones, who were there, just inside. The disaster was happening, right Before our eyes full of tears. The glaring fact of brutal and unforgivable deed Tearing apart its people hearts in pieces and a nation’s pride Had moved the entire world except those Who believe in the faith of violence and misdeeds? Let us keep now that place ‘Ground Zero’ A place of Peace and Non violence Where kindness and love can be seen in every branches and trees Where Nature may exists in its serene beauty and coolness Let there be no bricks and walls No pits and falls And no sound of any kind except the Sound of kindness and love and the music of nature Which we can hear coming from birds and flowers From plants and trees and water running streams. Let us make it a Garden of God., In the memory of those who lost their lives And kept their nation’s pride high. Ravindra Kanpur India 10th Sept. 2010 DEDICATION: The Poem is dedicated to all my fellow Americans. And this dedication is not only from me but from all the peace loving people of India. We are with you in the hour of your grief. Ravindra

How kind of you. I wish all the world felt this way for my country. I can't see them putting a stream in NYC, but man, that would be awesome and I love your description of a type of Garden of Eden to start fresh!! Luv, Andrea

I am glad that you told me of this one..Enjoyed reading your thoughts and feelings about the event..We were going to take Caleb to the dr that day..I had everything finished that wives and mothers have to do so I sat down and turn on the tv. Right before my eyes the second plane went into the building..I could not comprehend it all at first..I still have trouble dealing with it..Sara

Beautifully put Ravinda! If only we could have preserved that "coming together" that everyone felt after this atrocity. Amazing isn't it? Nearly all religions teach tolerance and yet they all have members responsible for most of the hatrid and strife.

Dear, Ravindra! This poem is really moving, touches the heart all over again. The pain it build in most of us nation wide. Can never be healed. It will always go back to ground zero. The disaster that tore our hearts. The lost feeling we will hold forever just, knowing there was not much we could do to help, them poor souls,, Love your poem very sad and deep. Yes peace is what keeps our nation high,..Poet D.
