World AIDS Day

World AIDS day is observed to-day,
Most horrendous immuno – deficiency- syndrome, they say.
The victim affected loses the power of body resistance
Against diseases causing bacteria and germs
Becomes venerable to the attack of any ailment
Natural potency of the body to restore normalcy remains dormant and decadent
The patient meets a premature death,
So AIDS day brings awareness about one’s health.
AIDS spreads due to careless sex,
Receiving blood from already suffering patients,
Use of the same syringe as of a diseased for a healthy man,
Intake of his body fluid also may fan
the fire of AIDS so beware,
Use condom or else no sex with unknown you share.
Accept blood only form HIV negative person,
Do not allow use of old syringe for injection.
Remain away from saliva, mucus like body fluid of other,
Be free from AIDS and lead a healthy life forever.
Spread this message to as many as you can,
Render service to human society oh health conscious man!
A request to dear readers in the end we make,
Read the poem “Condom Conundrum” by Mr Gaan from the net for your health sake.

God has created man with fertile brain,
also with many virtues and vices with power of judgment and acumen.
Man’s mind is fickle and fast,
Unless tamed and trained to man’s very existence, it can lambast
Swept by vices man loses the real wisdom,
Hankering after own illusory pleasure man breaks His harmonious system.
With many innovative creation to his so called credit for health and happiness,
He pollutes and disturbs ecological balances.
As a result nature and His system frown with furry,
AIDS, Cancer, Tsunami pounce at man in merry.
For these deadly catastrophes man has no answer,
Then man surrenders and goes to God with prayer.
Even with his proud possession of intellect and power of discrimination,
He is not able to read the message and goes for his own destruction.
“Use your virtues and conscience and to ecology be kind,
Shun your vices, lust anger and greed with tamed mind.
You domesticate animals out of love and compassion,
But under your love you have many a pretension.
Hence beastly and deadly diseases do come running,
Against such viruses human immunity has no meaning.
Perhaps God had earlier never thought of man’s such nefarious action,
Hence Aids and Tsunami are new lessons for him to get corrected before sinking in to oblivion.
