Present Made of Past by Vishal Swami
In this long journey of countless years and ages,
We changing humans,
To big cities from small villages.
In this long travel of walking slow to flying fast,
We learning creatures
Live in the present made of the past.
In this long night
Of sleeping on hard stone to comfy bed,
We grew lazy
Because of comfort and junk we got fed.
In this long sleep
Of dreaming to what dreams meant,
We lost sleep
To work over night for rent.
In this long development
Of cave painting to digital art,
We creative beings
Live in the Present made of the Past.
In this long fighting
Of mean kings to clever leaders,
We lost trust
Because of masqueraders.
We all carry our Cultures,
Ethics that we leverage,
Deep inside we are connected
With our great Heritage.
Cultures evolve slow
Thinking changes fast,
Future become better
When we learn from Past.
We Humankind
Live in the Present made of the Past.
