Poetic Verses
Quality of life or Standard of Living
Are we having better standard of living?
If so, at what price are we paying?
Will this touted improved quality of life, will later pose a problem
When it may someday create an equlibrimm shift.
Those apparent and well accepted signs of progress
Is this a way of measuring or quantifying success
Or has this created another societial mess
As lots of people are now living under stress
There are those who have not semblance of conscience
Stopping at nothing to keep up an appearance
Without stopping to think about the reality and the graviy
That such could put them in a state of financial difficulty.
Most of us on evenings hurry to our houses without fear
Confining ourselves devotely in out artifucial atmosphere
At the same time many of those electrical equipment are being employed
So that those performing house work will not be so laboured
Our children whom we love so dear, we have no fears
Of Letting the sit before the computer and Tv absorbing those electromagnetic rays
Then to cap it off during the days
They are allowed to play long hours with those electronic games.
No allowing the joy having a long and exhilerating run
Through the fields or parks in the morning sun
Letting not dispense but keep all that energy
Confined to the house doing something so sedentery.
It will be startling to take a look
And see how many people dear travel by foot
Not wanting to walk even if it is not that far
Will resort to travelling by omnibus or car
How can we really measure the the standard of living?
Have we not at the same time seen illnesses increasing ?
Can it be that such have been because of our involvement?
In attaining this goal have impacted and infarcted the environment
If so, at what price are we paying?
Will this touted improved quality of life, will later pose a problem
When it may someday create an equlibrimm shift.
Those apparent and well accepted signs of progress
