The Shrinking Horizons of Human Mind

center
The shrinking horizons of human mind Ever since Corona has confined us in our dwellings It has changed our nature and human behaviour In many fields of life Not only, has it changed human nature In a considerable way leaving few expectations But it has changed unknowingly our thinking and attitude too On social platforms, social media, TV and At different other organisational level Of public and private bodies world over. . Often we see, different restrictions and bindings are imposed, Directly and sometimes indirectly Only because of the shrinking horizons of human mind and attitude. 02 . It is happening only because We are no longer to free to move anywhere Where earlier, we were moving and enjoying Expressing ourselves and part taking in social gatherings As per our will love and likes. 03 . We used to see Cinema in picture halls, Used to take part in music gatherings, dramas, games and Other outer events and restaurants and Often many of us used to enjoy out most lovely foods and joy rides We were free to enjoy even out lovely sports in our city state of Even anywhere in the world and All these things used to relieve us From the weights of different pressures and problems Which are no longer available to take part in them as vibrant spectators, in a comfortable manner, as were habitual of And such thing used to enchants us often Only few months and weeks ago. 04 Young lovers, husband and wife Who used to enjoy the togetherness of their partners Like the chattering pairs of loving birds Are no longer getting those lofty moments As many things have changed in everyone's life Everywhere in the world. 05 But, the day is not very far off When old days would once again be with us Although many of us may miss Some of our loftiest friends and dear ones As those vanished people Would then be waving their hands From a very far off distance Where the Sun spreads its golden beams With a sound of music Which flows freely on each one of us. 06 Ravindra K Kapooor Raipur India 28th June 2020

Every aspect of our lives has been affected by the virus, Ravindra. You have written a beautiful poem! I hope society will return to normal if and when the pandemic ends. It can get pretty sad trying to cope. Hugs, Carolyn

Hi, Ravindra, you have touched on a topic for which I believe there is an explanation, and I am afraid to tell you. We are in the "new normal" because this is what the elitists of the world want for us. They want to enslave us. There is so much information out there about it and how it all relates to their agenda. I have been writing poems about it here and there and doing FB posts. Few people pay attention but when all wake up, it will probably be too late (DON'T take the vaccination)

Currently, the biggest problem in the India is the covid situation. I have seen the videos of people burning their dead relatives. Poor people deprived of vaccines. Miseries, poverty, and deaths. May God have mercy on those miserable people. Is there any online system through which we can donate? I searched online, but I am not sure if I can trust those sites or not?

Thanks df for your msg. In India although the Lock down as such is over but still lot of do and don'ts. I will read soon the "new normal" as mentioned by you. Currently the main problem in India is a possibility of war between China and India and may be China and Pakistan. I was nice to see you after a long dear friend. Your views seem more logical. With best wishes always...Ravindra
