Touched by humanity…..

This poetry is inspired by the work of Mittal Patel, who is working to elevate the meager life’s of a few hundred thousand nomads in Gujarat- India. Barred historically as notorious tribes declared criminal tribes by the British many decades ago. They are still struggling for social equality.

Thanks to a few learned people who courageously take up such issues and put in efforts for bringing a change for tomorrow's better society.

This in itself is a cheerful social change worth applauding.

Touched by humanity this is my way of conveying thank you!

The world is changing, evolving

Seeming to be developing rapidly

Becoming better place!

Are we changing really?

There’re still many people sects

Branded nomads- Living Subdued lives

Status unrecognized.

Are we changing really?

Empty stomach

Bare bodies and hands

Struggling with poverty,

Ignorance -social intolerance.

Are we changing really?

Witnessing cultural diversity

Contrasting colors

Of social change

Are we changing really?

Revolutionary concepts enhanced life

Hi-speed Internet- Connectivity

Knowledge availability

Are we changing really?

The elite and the common man

Wider increasing social gap

Endless distance

Are we changing really?

Dramatically changing modern life’s

Rejoicing our illusionary victory

Are we changing really?
