*Is the world changing?

Is the world changing?
                                                 
Decades down, children were gentle with parents,
Today, parents have to be tender with them.

Then, marriage was easy and divorce difficult,
Today separation is seamless and Marriage is belittled.  Is the world changing?

Back then,  couples wanted to have young ones,
Now they hesitate to have even one.
And are contended with furry ones

Then, we wanted to know our neighbours and wished to mingle with them,
Presently, we are alien to all around us with no one knowing anyone, we are all clueless.

We had many friends then to play and share our joys,
And now We have thousands online but no one to love and annoy. Is the world changing?

Back then people ate plenty to slog,
Today we eat scanty to maintain our cholesterol.
And everyone wanted to be stout to look healthy,
Today we diet to look evergreen and happy.

Villagers migrated to cities for employability,
And See now, we are all running to villages for tranquility.

Years ago, one member worked enough to keep up an entire clan,
Nowadays the entire clan works to rear one single new-born. What do you think?  Is the world changing?

Then the people loved to be among reading community
Today we take pride in being an Internet society.

World has changed and changed entirely,
For Good or Bad  ?
What do you think?
