LET’S BUILD HEAVENLY HOMES!


LET’S BUILD HEAVENLY HOMES!

Say, what is the sweetest place on Earth? Undoubtedly, a Home,
Where reigns unconditional and eternal Love in its fullest form;
May it be a poor and pitiable cottage, or a dazzling, imperial Dome,
May it stand in a dry and dreary desert, or in a rich, resplendent Rome!

Trust and Home are naturally as inseparable as the skin and the flesh,
Where mutual Co-operation is certainly indispensably part and parcel!
It becomes a Heaven when Selfless Sacrifice like a high tide does swell,
Where it hardly ever takes long to shower generously Divine Grace!

Today, infinite mushrooming royal mansions are built with utmost care,
Alas! Finding a Peaceful and Heavenly Home is really too tough and rare!
Lust has expelled Love, and Avarice has overtaken Sacrifice everywhere,
Oh! The ambience of the so-called homes is like that of a unreliable Lair!

A speedy restoration of the heavenly Homes is the prime priority of the hour,
For the revival and survival of heavenly Homes, let’s recite a Universal Prayer!
Then only can be fulfilled the principal Aim of the Almighty God’s Creation,
And the so called Morden Civilizations can relish the real taste of Evolution!
