Years Passes.... Poem by Sheshu Babu

Another winter
Another year.....
Passes unnoticed silently
Into the annals of history...

What was new?
What would be new? ...
Only dates months years change
Seconds, minutes change...

The struggles remain -
From Standing Rock Sioux
To Yellow Vests
Or Syrian starvation deaths
To struggles of Chhattisgarh tribes-
In the public domain....

Seasons have passed....
Summers without water
Winters with shiver
And rain- washed lives inbetween...

The only hope
That keeps going forward is. -
Change of moments, minutes, days
Weeks, months and years.....
And 'CHANGE' in human lives
With 'CHANGE' in humanity....!
And 'CHANGE ' in the way
Human beings treat each other....
A radical 'CHANGE' towards
Perception of life
On Earth...! !
