The Voice Of The World Poem by Ravi Panamanna

The Voice Of The World

Rating: 5.0


What is the voice of this world in truth?
******************************************

The voice of the world
Is a big noise-
Of praise and flattery,
Of promises that are never kept,
Of revolt and never ending violence.
Of ranks and dispositions,
Of the ways to become rich,
Of the utterance of peace and harmony.

The voice of the world-
Is not really the voice of our heart,
Is not so nice as we think,
Is not softer as we normally expect,
Is not above a class feeling.

The voice of the world
Is a big cry unheard-
Of shattered dreams,
Of hunger and pain,
Of possessed and unresponded love.

And the voice of the world,
Finally is a deepening silence!

Captured the many in poverty, that is there greatest enemy poverty. It just denies and erases hopes and dreams.
