1971-2011

1971 to 2011 Then, If only, we could understand We could have walked hand in hand. If only, plots could be reversed Echoes could have been hushed. If only, coups could be avoided Laws could have been abided. If only, lust could be elapsed Our land could have been wrapped. If only, ego could be aside ‘Sorry’ could have been pride. If only, “The Book” could be cited Some respect could have been provided. If only, we could understand We could have walked hand in hand. Now, We may walk hand in hand If only, we can understand. Situations should not be revised If only, leaders can be advised. Other’s drones should be erased If only, dear ones can be praised. Respect and education is their right If only, we can feel their plight. Mistakes are meant to teach If only, past may we reach. As a nation may we reside If only, keep “The Book” beside Then, we may walk hand in hand If only we can understand.
