Mumbai

With all thats been happening over the last two days at Mumbai here is a poem written by Dinesh Gopalan a frien of mine .... Cheers Dinesh...

Mumbai

The troubles of the world are ours,
To own up and act upon,
There's no such thing as, It's too far,
For us to waste our time on.
Nothing's too far in time, or place,
There's no such thing as remote,
There's no such thing as a safe place,
An unassailable fort.
Let's stop building moats around ourselves,
Smug in our own cocoons,
Let's tear the walls that bind us,
and think beyond our own confines.
No act of terror is far from home,
No person killed a stranger,
The world needs to stand and fight as one,
This ever-present danger.
