The New Birth

In the dark ages,
The world lay bare
With no care
In the inhabitants lives.
As time flies
So knowledge grows
From height 
To height till it springs
Something tangible.
Then a blessing and a 
Curse was conceived
Which bcame compatible
With the society,
A new society.
The new birth brought
Means of destruction
Of lives
And the creation
Of medium of easier
Movements like flying
In the air,moving
From one planet
To another planet
With measures costlier. 
An instrument of death
And life like two-edged
Sword,out of its sheath.
Your bearers are judged
As scientists with 
intentions.
What intentions?
The savior of mankind?

Hi Ifeanyi Bob, thanks much for entering my contest with this lovely thoughtful poem about how science could be seen as a new birth. However the contest rules require the personification form. Also, the form you chose doesn't match this form either. I would do one more edit, it is still a wonderful poem regardless of the contest, I enjoyed reading it.
