The Global Scene, Feb 2015

The scorching sun seems earlier back this year; The measly bug is lurking in the leaves; The mighty mist has made most tree-leaves brown; The water from the pipes is hot by noon! The elections can change the nation's fate; New rules and regulations keep coming; The price of common things is not yet curbed; The common man is caught amidst chaos. New governance can root out evils fast; But poverty will stay as in the past; More militant outfits strike more terror; The unity of nations has suffered. All seem to re-align in global scenes; The fight against corruption continues; The state of people has not changed one bit; The fate of common man appears worse hit. The polity can't go on speaking lies; Crimes keep on rising; so are accidents; The lives of citizens are endangered; Respect for human life has touched nadir. May God usher a miracle healing! The blood of innocent lives cries to Him; The rich are turning richer with much ease; The world is losing brother-hood and peace. Copyright by Dr John Celes 4-2-'15
