Missing love

Missing love
P K Routray
On the earth the most terrible poverty to-day as being observed
is loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted and unloved.
The biggest disease is no longer leprosy or tuberculosis, nor AIDS not cancer,
but the feeling of being unwanted and unloved even by the own family member.
There is now more hunger for love and appreciation than bread,
The poverty is not only being hungry, homeless or naked.
For wealth, laurels and achievements our life is restless and fast at all moments,
Neither parents have time for children nor have children for parents.
The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest,
Let us start to remedy it at our own home for our nearest and dearest.
