We are the last generation, A couple of years, we will be extinction. We never wore helmet, Riding bicycles with whole heart. We played outside without fear, Knowing none will bother. We never drank from plastic bottles, A gulp anywhere, as it wasn't fatal. Drinking water from water springs, Without worrying with playful flings. Shared our toys with others, As all were our sisters and brothers. No Security fences, Not knowing what was offences. We never had medicine cabinets, Healthy eating, our regular habits. Stalking our crushes, Sending them unknown wishes. True love was like a heaven, Generations will miss those haven. Eating all the chocolates & sweets Not bothered about obesity, as it was treats. No brand shoes, walking with bare foot, playing, jumping & running, always cute. Ate real and healthy food, Each chosen by parents for our good. Never knew what supplements were, Even doctors medicine was rare. Made our playing things, With scarps, mud, sand and all things. Gliding through the slides, in playground, no security nor guards. No phones, computers, Nor PlayStation Had real friends, our plays, full of action. The only tablet we had, when were sick, We had many things to play, with no logic. Going to school with backpacks, Carrying the load of notebooks, Getting beaten with cane sticks, Escaping from teachers, were real tricks. No calling or prior texting, Surprise for friends, us visiting. Relatives lived closely, With love & bonding, made ties, as a family. Photos were in Black and white, We were always looking bright. But the memories, were colorful, Each moment we spent was cheerful. Not worried about colors nor looks, By age and numbers we were hooked, We shall be remembered, as the last generation, Who were filled with real human emotion. We gave keen attention to our elders, Whom we considered our life ladders, Listening to flashback stories, With grandparents, our memories. An unmatched generation, Which makes us responsible, In sharing all things wonderful in life, As the next don't spend theirs in grief. Lets return to the basics, To teach old ways of life and to fix. Stop wasting time, for tv's and screens, Care and love others, is what life means. Put them gadgets down, and rise, Start to look in each others eyes. Take off your shoes, don't get spoiled, Step your foot out, feel the soil. Often, Use Thank You, as a gratitude, make it a habit, new. Involve with people, say I love you, You will not regret, even if you have a few. We the peoples, born during 1950's to 90's, We aren't special, but a limited edition models.

Peoples of the 1980's to 90's
We are the last generation, A couple of years, we will be extinction. We never wore helmet, Riding bicycles with whole heart. We played outside without fear, Knowing none will bother. We never drank from plastic bottles, A gulp anywhere, as it wasn't fatal. Drinking water from water springs, Without worrying with playful flings.

76
I survived a life-threatening, Coma-inducing & memory-debilating High-speed road accident in May ‘10. I survived COVID12, The SARS-COV12. Now I even survived COVID19. I, howsoever, know what I am. I am a mortal. Perishable.

I Am A Mortal
Back in the day when all the trees would sway, and the children would play In the sun, in the shade through the rain never kept at bay puddles needed splashing, skin needing a tanning. We laughed once, we cried when we fell learnt from the scrapes and bruises It’s a lot different now. Oh take me back to the 90s.

Only 90s Kids Will Remember
My age is less than your Jesus, I was born 2 days before X-mas, The year was 1990 Anno Domini.

1990 Years But 2 Days Younger
Going back is a Fool's Paradise Its un- truth is its Per Fec Tion the delicate bead of your kiss A tongue enunciating what the present Can Be makes it all So Clear Worth while Good night but not Good bye to us maybe but You and I still stand strong think clear- ly have twisting desires guns in our backs for some tattered and tear-stained piece of Truth We cannot be Con Tained within the realm of Re Collec Tion Let us bleed out into the frightening cold of our stark Day Light Dreams Jesus, I own thoughts that align me with you! You are a confusing cup of cigarette tea And we are working to let our meat be malleable our minds supple and our tongues agile in the warm embrace of the other's Mouth Heart Eyes Another universe of dangerous Pos Si Bi Lity To hell with Duality! The past is Simplicity! **** what is wrong Know what is Right and live to see the probability of Tonight

Looking Out (for J.J.F.)
The first buffalo IVFed in India, And the world is named Pratham. It was produced by Hand-Guided Cloning technique, By the Animal Biotechnology scientists here at NDRI. High precision was not enough, 100% accuracy was the need here. But now they have developed techniques using micromanipulator, Still it requires expertise and it's only a tad bit convenient & easier. The youngest cloned buffalo born is named Rajat, It is both alive since July 23, 2014 and also kickin' its keepers.
