Tooth that is blue, teaching the value of sharing
Everyday life made simple, all with a click
Countries and continents, a ping away
Hours of entertainment blanket
Nuggets of wisdom accrued from the videos
Online we go, to earn and spend. Is that
Love you need?
Oh yeah, got it from all four corners of the world too
Global village is our realm
Yet we remain, aliens in the same room

your poems are very thoughtful varad. This acrostic arouses a lot of questions. while technology is a boon it is equally a curse sometimes when we have to communicate with hubby and kid inside four walls in WhatsApp.

Thank you, Deepa. What you say is true. We have regressed in our active social lives and instead are playing out a virtual social presence. State of our present reality.

So ironical, that we stay connected with the world yet remain disconnected to the ones we are close to!

Exactly! We are all guilty of having an active virtual social presence, yet we barely know our next door neighbours. Thanks for the comment, Esha

Rightly described. That is how technology has changed the world. While technology did build bridges between places far and wide but it also had a negative impact on human relationships.
