Entrenched in self in harmful ways;
Consumed by lust, by fear, by doubt,
Please quench dark flames; in kindness shout!
Back to the root of things, I say.

Remember that heirs’ ripples pay
The price, do not your cruelty flout.
Set down the gender roles you ought.
Seek out the root of things, I say.

Please walk the walk, stop playing games!
Don’t train your kids to play a role!
(All parents understand just how.)
Back to the root of things, I say.

Continue them, continue shame;
Release them, let a New Age glow,
Where soul to soul our species grow.
Act from the root of things, I say!

Today’s offering is a kyrielle form poem.

Reena Saxena is the host of Reena’s Exploration Challenge.  Reena says:
The image and quotes are indicative, not restrictive. You have full freedom to write anything, as long as the central concept is…

Videos, social media accounts,

Likes that counts,

Information at fingertips,

News about places sans planning those fun filled trips,

Life now is made easy,

Without frills and fancies, then it was breezy,

Is that now we are gripped by fear,

Living our daily lives becoming unclear?

Leaving imprints isn’t hard,

Long after we are gone, we shall remain through recordings and lovely picture cards,

Leaving lasting impression on one another would be easy or not,

Would it be a long shot?
