International Day of Poetry - 21 March

 

Youth

Yearning, orderliness, understanding, truthfulness and honour

Come forward to make a group of people called YOUTH

They are the energetic and generative power of the entire world

They are fragile, fragmented and vulnerable to handle

 

Some say that they are the strength and hope of a country

Others say that they are the destructive force of a country

Constructive criticism brings new energy and life to the youth

Destructive criticism brings destruction and death to the youngsters.

 

Their energy flows like a current in the deep sea

Their thinking capacity makes new discoveries

Their power brings voice for the voiceless

On the whole the massive potentials can do wonders

 

Modern culture is not an enemy of faith says,

The energetic hands and the brains of the youth

We are capable, devoted, dedicated and idealists

Our language of faith is silent desires and stillness

 

A person who discovered the inner yearning of this group

He is the hero and spiritual star of this driving force

Do you know the travelling companion of this driving force?

Yes, he is the friend of youngster Pope Francis

 

We swim in a different sea, with confusion and cross current

Our road to Christ will be more personal and more spiritual

Our transmission of faith is the beam of this journey of life

Where the losers always think that failure is final

The winner’s always think that success is never ending and failures are never final.
