Virtual Reality

a poem by Sheela K . Sharath

The sun wil rise,
the sun will set –
nature’s two constants
that have stood the
test of time.
But,
when nature blots out
the sun even for a short spell,
mankind goes into a flutter,
susperstitions are rife,
the end of the world
is declared,
people cower and hide
behind downed curtains.
Life grinds to a virtual halt!
Only the scientists
and the brave few,
deliberately view,
this spectacular
phenomenon.
Such
is the might of
positive power,
let not negativity
overpower you for
even a second.
Stand up and overcome
or be
overcome!
The choice is yours!
