WHAT HAS CHANGED, THEN?
Everything changes in life, Yet, some things don’t! The light to the world outside Has, always, come from the Sun, Even, at night, the Moon shines Only because the Sun is kind, The Stars, which make my night beautiful, Are also the Sun’s siblings… The wind, which blows as I go about, Comes from the distant seas and mountains, And they, too, are Sun’s kin and kith! Someone said, this morning: “The world has changed,”… I said to him: “No, it hasn’t”. Man may not live in caves, anymore, He may not use stones, anymore, to do his trade… He may no longer cover his waist with leaves, And write his notes with feathers… Or, light his fire with stones. Yes, he doesn’t need elephants to fight, Doesn’t carry news by scrolls..! Kings are gone, Kingdoms have fallen, The bows and arrows have long been left behind, God doesn’t send Prophets...
