In today’s busy world, we can lose sight of what makes us human. This poem talks about the delicate nature of relationships, the advice of our elders, and the importance of kindness and respect.
It reminds us to repair our connections and create a better future filled with love and understanding.

“Mending Fragile Bonds”

A heart, once whole, now cracked and torn,
A bond, once strong, now frail and worn.
In selfish pursuits, we lose our way,
Forgetting values, day by day.

Elders, wise guides, a sacred sight,
A beacon of love, a source of light.
Disrespect their wisdom—a grave mistake,
A future dimmed, for goodness’ sake.

Let’s pause and ponder what truly counts,
Not fleeting gains, but love’s gentle mounts.
Kindness and respect, a precious art,
To mend our hearts is a noble start.

We’ll lead the way with love and grace,
Teaching our young to cherish their space.
Actions speak louder—a timeless truth,
Nurturing bonds in age and youth.

Though fragile the bond, it can be healed,
With empathy’s balm, a wounded field.
Let’s unite as one, with hearts sincere,
A future of harmony drawing near.

Let’s weave anew, a bond unbroken,
A tapestry of love, forever spoken.
With hearts open wide, souls entwined,
A future of harmony and peace of mind.
(Vijay Verma)
