 *I can see the change*

Yes there is wave
Of change all over.
The streets are much cleaner.
No more stinking  garbage heaps,
Early morning  I see workers in jackets green,
busy in sweeping the roads clean.
Trollies, garbage trucks with supervisors following up
Public utility and pink toilets have been built up.
The roadsides look beautiful
with paintings and gardens vertical .
making Noida clean and green.

Commuting is so easy with e tickets, Uber and Ola Cabs
 Metros, AC buses ,
Flyovers and underpasses,
expressways and fastags.

Online banking and
shopping , Swiggy and online food deliveries ensure life of ease,

Yes there is a change
Cloth bags are  now in vogue
suddenly pushing away polythenes from the back door.
 Men and women
carry huge bags and trollies in weekly markets.
Paying with paytm and Bhim to the street vendors.
Chaat wala wear gloves while serving yummy gol guppas

Yes there is a change,
People share responsibility
and give much more in charity.
They love to care and share.
Of and on there is free food langar.

Yes there is a wave of change

People are aware of their rights.
Poor kids enjoy going to school
They learn to follow the rules.

But amidst this
sea of change
 negative forces are working for narrow gains.

Be more rational,
beware of forces  anti national.
Beware of cyber fraud
Never forward  messages of hate
in the name of God.

Amidst this change
Have self discipline and control
and socialise more.
Find time to go out and walk
Take time with kids and old to talk.
All need care and have feelings to share.
