Modern Grief

                           Modern Grief!

A lonely pic on the bare wall./                                In the end, THAT is all!//                                           The plastic garland never may wither./           Dust it gathers hither and thither!//          Cobwebs crowd, fine and thin./                 Memories rust in the dustbin//                            of harried dates to make/                                        so that 'success' descendents bake!//                 Newer photos soon the wall adorn./                 Current grief, for now sad n love lorn!//           'Life' goes on, nothing here stops./                      Yon emojis screen sad beeps n bops!//

Pratima@ 'What' indeed goes on?!?
