Sonnet: Life Looks Strange

The world I see is stranger than I knew; Most people seem to have no heart at all; The trust and fear in God, man must renew; No one is prudent to avoid a fall. The love amongst neighbors is external; The family ties are crumbling all the more; The peace amongst nations isn't real; Much selfishness prevails in minds, hearts core. But why do people change to such extents? Most wear a mask to hide their expressions; Happier are ones who lead their lives in tents; All ages, sexes develop depressions. Each one forgets his worries in queer ways; Just God decides the fate of human race. Copyright by Dr John Celes 20-09-2014
