Though the war was fought long-long ago, Implications of it make us many miles go; When we’re wearied and need God’s favor, He’s ready waiting to hold our hands ever; Amidst sufferings and shadows of pain, Decease and death and physical corruption; Hands of God is ever extended over us, His footprints guide and safely lead us; Kurukshetra war or Israel-Palestine fight, Buddhist uprising or Chinese conflict; Abyssinia or Somalia or Yugoslavia, Lebanese fights or wars of Pakistan-India; Humans should control the surging ego, Or fall will go before their pride does go; Forgetting divine power if we proceed, History will forever to involution recede… 22 July 2021
