A decade packed with terrorism and violence,
Ten years of fear and turbulence,
Has made the world gape and nervous
Rendering a disaster diabolical and grievous.
Oil rich nations are in turmoil serious
Vying for power and wealth tedious,
The western nations bereft of oil,
Seize the unrest by activating a foil.
The disturbed countries fall a prey,
To the ambit of the western sway,
Giving place to war and death,
Where their own kith lose their breath.
The displeasure found an expensive target,
In the twin tower attack which beget,
Innumerable innocent lives in a wink,
Grazing the tall structures to a blink.
Spearheaded by Osama Bin Laden,
The destruction was an episode that saddened,
Millions and billions all over,
Leaving them defunct moreover.
Obama carried a shoot out in Abbottabad,
Where Osama fell to the gun shots bad,
Came an end to the terrorism of Osama,
Brought out in strict secrecy by Obama.
With that terrorism should get away,
But still there are few ingots in the fray,
Who have to be handled with care,
To eradicate the remains of terrorism in full fare.
A small hope shoots up,
A little desire spurts up.
Will the world be a land of peace?
Can Mankind exist with ease?

One reply on “Elegy for Terrorism”
I’m afraid the history of mankind is full of war and hate…Peace appears to be a mythical beast that we can merely read about.
