Who Are Truly Civilized And Fit To Be Modern? Poem by Ramesh T A

Everything goes on as if in a competition in the modern world with Time;
If work is done well or worse, Time goes on its own stride everyday nonstop;
Can anyone or any machine work nonstop as Time in this modern machine world?
Tick of Time goes on with its pace whether man's heart beats fast or slow ever!

Physically or mechanically, man cannot compete with Time as with Nature sure;
Time and Nature are not for easy and fast way of life as man tries to achieve;
Whatever thing Nature does, does for perfection and for evolution to higher one;
Man does all for material gain sans any satisfaction and enjoyment in work now!

Perhaps only farmers, artists and poets do like Nature does for satisfaction,
Perfection, enjoyment and peace feeling unique pride non can have in this world;
For, whether all appreciate and praise their venture or not, posterity will do that;
Not only that, their work of art lives immortal life whether they are alive or dead!

Truly Poets, Artists and Farmers only are civilized and fit to live in modern world
As their ventures are ever new, creative, inventive, innovative and fatigue-less...!
