Can you see the symmetry? In the finesse of the wordsmith... Artistry abounds In the weaving Each symbol denotes Each block-form connotes Yet today we forget And this art we've abandoned Alphabets have caged Albeit setting free emotions A thousand words Used to be a few strokes A single inscription Used to convey an 'idea' Today with all the words Misunderstanding abounds Perhaps occasional silence Would help our cause Yet a dam once burst Will continue gushing Still I surmise We might return to 'symbols' For 'bots have replaced 'Pen strokes' for 'Keystrokes' And the feel of 'paper' Is digitized So we now have smileys Thumbs ups and other emoticons These symbols have now replaced A bunch of words Thus from where we started There we return The word written... Is going home. Haidarwali 201405111143hrs
