Anisha Dutta Poet Sonnet

Ongoing Generation

Ongoing Generation 
    
        
          Human nature changing, hardening fast,
          loosing emotions, always in hurry.
          Affluence hits society in gust.
          Future demands more and more luxury.

         New generations challenged by ego,
         rushing, running, leaving close attachments.
         ‘My life is mine’ ! All others to forego.
          Self-centred aim, surpassing sentiments.
          
          Civilisation in rapid progress.
          on materialistic perspective.
          Science and technology to impress.
          Dealings dominate, feelings inactive.

          ‘High-living’ on ‘Plain -thinking’ in future.
            Emotional bonding not to nurture.

Sam Kauffman June 12, 2023 at 11:51 AM Congratulations on your win Anisha. You have made a great point - seems the more we have, the more we think we are entitled to and the more we want like an empty pit that can never be filled. Thank you for your poignant and very relevant message. Blessings.
