New World Order

Springing up, like a cactus sprout, after the First-World-War, The concept of New-World-Order did not touch deeper core; Like, water drop on lotus leaf, it stood touched and untouched, Sometimes it appeared ditched; other times, again, it got clutched...! Thompson Woodrow Wilson thought of International peace, Is peace, so simple? Do tensions within minutes get ease? Did he, yet, ever think of such concept, in any way? Or, any other leaders, on this, their opinion say...? Is it a ploy, like monkey becoming judge for the cats? Or, is it like the fox asking the crow to sing, as tact? Why did the race-course stop, in midway, as though at random? Hare lost or tortoise won? - Why no information, solemn...? A New-World-Order, indeed, is prerequisite today, It's not like an advanced nation, swaying power away; Nor like an alien troop beyond nations control the rule, And making all others, as though asses, permanent fool...! New-World-Order is a system, in which, concord exists, Peace and prosperity, among all citizens persists; Caste, color, creed, sect, ethnic variations are erased, Dealings midst beings are always compassionate love- based...! Poor and needy, like twigs among bouquets, should have their place, Care for others, like horse-tack, should control the cut-throat race; Each, in this planet, should have their essential piece of land, If anyone lacks, others, like brothers, should lend their hand...! World, as made by God, must turn like the Garden of Eden, Fresh air, fresh water, measure freshness should ever deepen; If one thinks, this thought is Utopia, let this be one, Won't striving toward such a state be an unending fun...? 24 April 2022 New World Order Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Robert James Liguori
