Sad Paradox Poem by chandra thiagarajan
Sad Paradox
Natural forces and resources can man harness
From the barren land of dryness
He can grow food abundant
From primitive state he has become civilized
In intelligent society he is comprised
With many comforts he is vibrant
In luxuries he indulges
Without the least restraint he binges.
He is amidst a mountain of wealth
He lives a life of prosperity!
Yet, he knocks at the blocks of worry and anxiety
In this grand society
In this world his transaction and reaction
Is ever in dissatisfaction.
Is this not a paradox sad?
Yeah a paradox indeed. A very nice thought provoking poem. The ones who have plenty have anxiety. Great to read.

In the midst of affluence, man is still lacking many things! In his wild hunt after material possessions, he loses inner happiness and peace of mind! Indeed a sad paradox! The theme of the poem is worth pondering!
Yes it is sad indeed - but to reach the mountain of satisfaction, we also have to travel through a lot of disturbing reactions: -) A great write Mam!

Satisfaction must come from inner peace, it cannot be obtained from merely gaining wealth. Message beautifully conveyed in the poem. Thank you.
