We were given infinity and eternity...

A friend wrote..."When the senior managers I was working with hit Delhi airport many of them said, " Bloody civilization" ! A sad commentry on what we have made of our society."

We were given infinity and eternity
we reduced it to centimetres and seconds
Most of us scrambled to get our piece of action
before we passed on
Some of us fretted about what we leave behind
for our children and grandchildren
A few of us sought oases to taste the earth
as she was made
Fewer still mulled
... the creation of oases...
