Civilization without Culture is a Sheer Waste!
All neglect Nature, literature, art, history and culture in the 
Commercialized modern world of civilization ever rushing 
And working for money believing it easy to buy all needed 
For survival and sustenance sans any problem what so ever! 
That serves only economic and technological development 
At the cost of social and spiritual development of humanity; 
The result is pollution and lack of hygiene leading to climate 
Change and new disease affecting whole of mankind ever..! 
Now saving world and humankind from all the dangerous 
Mess made by world society in the name of civilization has 
To change bringing in the well beneficial way of human life 
By Art, Culture, literature, history and Nature for good fo all! 
Civilization without culture is like great tower of building sans 
Strong foundation to sustain it for many years sans any harm sure! 
Farmers are Smiling and Crying for Rain for Good and Bad!
Rain drops are falling on my head, when I see down my 
Balcony full of motorbikes parked sans an end of road; 
In the middle of the road it is full of wet colour of rain that 
Has fallen on the night and the morning is misty cold sure! 
Rain has fallen through out the year without a pause any day 
Making all shun it expecting bright and hot Sunshine all day; 
Nature is showing its plenty sense of offering to all whether 
All like or not and the overflowing rain waters are with Sea! 
Too much of rain in all places makes the world seem to be in 
The Sea or Ocean all over the world making farmers smile 
And cry for destruction of about to be harvested crops soon 
Drowned in water everywhere and they wait for relief now..! 
One side farmers go on strike against government's strict 
Laws that affect their freedom to enjoy fruits of hard labour 
And on the other hand, suffering for too much of rain ever 
That spoils hard grown crops for months seeking mercy..! 
 When All is Fine?
As in Joint family, alliance in politics, partnership in business 
And friendship among persons share good and bad, victory 
And failure, profit and loss leading to bitter fight sure due to 
Sharing of loss and failure even by partners not responsible! 
For a longtime going on so makes all disintegrate and try all 
Works separately facing both victory and failure and profit 
And loss with full responsibility and satisfaction in world life; 
But new partnership with like mindedness and talent shines! 
Group of such talented artists or persons of any adventure 
Work hard in cooperation and coordination to achieve great 
Success and create history serving as example to many men; 
Partnership of poets and scientists have achieved miracles! 
Unless all share both burden and comfort in a give and take 
Policy way in politics, business, family and friendship all is fine! 
Contention of Heart in Life Possible only with Nature!
Modern world life goes on money like the fuel for running 
Vehicles on the road to go anywhere to do various works; 
Human life depends on money and food to pull on the days 
In a smooth fashion whether one is rich or poor in the world! 
That is city life dong all things like a machine by all sans fail; 
But in the village and farms, life goes on in harmony with 
Nature whether others anywhere work for money or do all 
To  achieve goals in life to feel proud or dejected by failure! 
Life of all lovers of Nature is contended one unlike others in 
Great ventures to make big money to be the greatest rich 
Man in the world always indulging in rivalry and competition 
To win or lose in adventure for money sans peace and joy! 
Contention of heart is the only way one can be happy and 
Ever peaceful in world life, if one lives in harmony with Nature! 
Modern World has made Man a Machine in lieu of Human to be Divine!
There is a race between man and machines for living only 
Mechanical life under the control of time in modern world; 
Everything has to be quickly finished before going to attend 
Another work in the fast world to earn more money faster! 
For. to fulfil the need of modern man money is not enough 
Ever making him to look for some other means to achieve it; 
Like a prey caught in the spider web, man does a lot of jobs 
To achieve his goals to meet both ends of  modern life long! 
What a pity!  Is it fate or man made hell to live doing things 
so in such a uncongenial fashion that man has also become 
Another machine in this modern machine world, where all 
Technological things are created to reduce his burden once! 
But due to economic progress, life style of civilization has 
Made man a machine but not a human to become a divine! 
Status of Modern World Leading to a Mad One!
Civilization is knowledgeable way of life based on reforms 
Shunning superstition based on mythology and religion 
Making use of Science and Technology to reduce burden 
Of works in life but not to make all slaves of machines ever! 
But nexus between businessmen and politicians has made 
use of that for maximum profit increasing works to the level 
Of making men as machines living by the tick of time forever 
Expanding urban area into villages and farms shrinking latter! 
Pollution caused by effluents out of industries and smokes of 
Vehicles have made air and water everywhere as poison to 
Breathe and drink and has led to the destruction of Earth 
Sooner or later making man seek asylum in some other planet! 
Profit making business at the cost of agricultural activities 
And social development has made modern world a mad one! 
 Civilization with Culture can do Miracles!
Human culture is not just obsolete tradition as many think, 
But is best way of life following the system of best thoughts, 
Best words and best deeds to fulful the purpose of life here; 
It is adopting best knowledge and thoughts of past in use! 
Had modern civilization adopted such a culture in practice, 
Many bad effects the world is facing in the form of pollution, 
Climate change and new diseases could have been averted; 
Destructive developments could have been stopped earlier! 
Rectification of misdeeds needs to be changed by reforms 
And strict discipline to go on the right route to achieve all 
Best things needed for mankind now and later so that by 
Wise decision new discoveries and inventions can help all! 
Civilization of modern world with the base of culture can do 
Great miracles dreamt by noble souls of the past for posterity! 
When will Man Change his Mechanical way of Life?
Mechanical life of machine man in the modern world does 
Not make him praiseworthy of the civilization he is proud of; 
Neglect of Nature, art and culture but only economy based 
On technological marvel at the cost of society is farcical....! 
In his pursuit of profit only based business, man has not 
Bothered about pollution that has led to climate change 
Causing natural disasters and new diseases affecting each 
And every one dreaming about the golden age of life ever! 
Living in harmony with Nature and indulging in creative arts 
Like painting, music, Poetry and all when is man going to 
Revive and achieve great feats to social progress, peace and 
Change positive and fulfilling in world life to have blissful end?! 
Technology is only an aid to facilitate man's work and life, 
But not for intellectual and spiritual progress to fulfilment! 
Mad World Modern World Is!
Civilization has brought in modernity in life to make human 
Life to live in a higher level highlighting best of human deed 
That might change world into a human realm unlike animals 
And pseudo divinity as angels live in heaven we all imagine! 
But what has happened after the two World War, cold war 
Started between USA and USSR dividing world into two to 
Decide who was great, powerful and leader in the world 
And still such a cold war is going on between many others! 
Scientific development has made so many nations powerful, 
Yet, poverty is there, unity, peace and friendly humanity is 
Still not developed due to economic race, military race and 
Technological progress at the cost of human sense forever! 
Mad world is modern world so to say by pollution, not 
Bothered about lack of pure water and new disease needing 
Realization of human sense born of love to live not as rivals 
But as friends cherishing culture to live creatively in Nature! 
Revive Culture to make Civilization of Modern World Meaningful!
Only savages and wild animals fight killing each other for 
Food, territorial aggression and domination of others ever; 
Slowly such beings realized the importance of safety, peace, 
Security and good end in life and that became culture sure! 
But even after great stride in making a lot of developments 
To live a long and luxurious life of civilization in the journey 
Of modern world, wars are there between brutally big and 
Strong and moderate and weak men and nations even today! 
By long experience of simple living and high thinking by 
Doing agricultural and weaving jobs, mankind by 
Experience has established culture as the best way of life; 
But civilization they have again become like animals for all! 
Is it not time think about our wonderful best life of past and 
Renovate our habit and revive culture with civilization now?
