Year 3016

A story of future world this is,

100 years from now in 3016 this story's place is.

100 years from today,

In 3016 there will be only black days.

Machines won't be controlled by us,

But we would be controlled my machines.

An old man of 3016 says remembering his childhood,

That there used to be trees with beautiful logs of wood.

There used to be a place for sentiments and feelings ,

there used to be bond between humans like siblings.

He continues by telling his present in 3016 ,

That no human has trust on each other and think each other mean.

They have no beautiful environment and nature ,

which will be seen and enjoyed happily by old and mature.

To breathe, there is no fresh air ,

for poisonous gases rich industrialists don't care.

Everywhere there is only destruction ,

True relation has nowhere its foundation for construction.

Then he curses his ancestors of 2016 ,

saying them mad and mean.

Says this 3016 punishment ,

was their testament.

They paved the way for destruction ,

they were cause of this bad condition.

They used resources unlimitedly ,

They harmed mother nature recklessly.

They sowed the seeds of fragile relation ,

by fighting with other nation.

They never preferred peace but always war ,

sufferers the people of 3016 are.

Hey , friends just one last question ,

Do you all want in 3016 such condition?

Then please do reform yourself ,

from curses of your descendants in 3016 you can protect yourself.

Adopt a witful approach towards environment ,

Not only for fulfilling ones selfish needs human life is meant.

At least care about your future generation ,

Do not fight with other nation....

I enjoyed this very much. Only issue is that 3016 is 1000 years from now, not 100. But other than that slight error, it was great. Thanks for sharing.

It's really interesting to think of what this world will become in a 1000 years. At the rate we are going will there even be human life in 3016? I enjoyed your words my friend and the thoughts they sparked. Always a fan of your work :)

Oh!!!! Thanks for your kind words....

Your words are very true.
"Adopt a witful approach towards environment ,
Not only for fulfilling ones selfish needs human life is meant.
At least care about your future generation ,
Do not fight with other nation...."
If we don't change our ways. The near future. Water shortages, war and hunger. the 1000 year is being generous. Bad days are coming ASAP. If we don't change our ways. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry. Left a lot for the reader to think about.

Miss Krishnayni... i must say that this is better than Rise Up, your recently written poem,,, i like your style of writing and your start. It ain't that i demanded but it is better than what you used to wrote. you're improving and it's just a good positive beginning! Thanks for sharing!

[Riddhi]

Thank you...

[Stan Lee]

There's a great sentiment behind your poem and you address a very big, important subject. Well done for speaking out and writing this great poem.
There are quite a few grammatical errors which I would be happy to help you with if you like.
Also it will actually take us 1000 years to get to 3016 ;) so you might want to change that.
Well done Riddhi. :)

[Riddhi]

So the little poetess is back with another very well written piece. You know I liked the thought behind it. Its very thoughtful and intriguing. So very well written. Especially the following lines:

"They sowed the seeds of fragile relation ,
by fighting with other nation"...
A real good one.

very well written! we all have been slowly pacing towards a devastating stage empowering our minds with hues of success on one hand and being blind folded to sorrowful result on the other..which would ultimately lead to 3016 as you described! very nice piece of work! keep it up!

[Riddhi]

Thank you and i agree with you that yes we are definitely heading towards a devastating stage but i know that we stand united for that cause , we can definitely change it..Thanks for reviewing...
