How true. In today's world, everybody is a Narcissus, whether he/she is indulging in selfies or not. Nobody has time for others, the way we had, in the old days. Very beautiful poem. and quite instructive for thenew gen. But do they listen?

It is depressing to see the peoples' addiction to cell phones and the youngsters' mad craze for selfies! We the elder generation often wonder where the world is heading to with all the 'zombies' who are oblivious of what is happening around them and indifferent to every one around! I too share your anxiety! Great write!

It has become an epidemic. Either fixated on the small display or focusing it on themselves, oblivious to the reality around them
