Informed World Poem by Tirupathi Chandrupatla

Informed World

Rating: 5.0


Modern technology
And all its marvels
Are routinely used today
For media communications.

It's exciting for us
To know in an instant
Details of happenings
In corners of the world.

Knowing the approach
Of an impending storm
Lets us be prepared
To avoid disaster.

Drought or floods or
Tremors of the earth
As and when they occur
We share our resources.

There's a lot of good
We gain from news on
TV, Radio and internet
Newspapers and e-news.

News people seem
To stress the sensational
Bad news is covered
More than the good.

Details of violence
And harmful acts
Be presented with caution
To prevent copycats.

Speed of communication's
Our greatest achievement
Let's reap all its benefits
And avoid all its pitfalls.

World has now shrunk
To be a brittle ball in hand
Let's handle it with care
And preserve it for the future.

A Wonderful poem, a thought provoking poem from your pen. Very true said in few lines.... World has now shrunk To be a brittle ball in hand It has to be handled with care. Good news are very few among the worst news we get everyday....which really make us unpleasant. Some times media keep on repeating the same and same. Thanks for sharing with us.

Yes, communication net work helps us get updated with everything that happens anywhere in the world the very same moment! We should be thankful to the advancement of technology! But this is at once a boon and a bane! If we use it recklessly, it is powerful enough to spell one's doom! So let us excercise caution! A great write!
