Twenty Twenty-Four needs Peace More

Welcome year twenty twenty  four

Bless this world with peace many more.

Conflicting nations now stand at four

Let harmony and tranquility be at their door.

May the ravaged lands find a light,

And Ukraine, Russia end their fight.

Rivalry, battle between Israel and Hamas

may end with ease and both embrace peace.

Year Twenty Twenty Three was corona free

Omicron's new variant JN1 has  made an entry.

Let the new variant  wane without causing pain

Misery of past pandemic  not to repeat again.

AI, a domain soaring high, a tool so vast,

Its generative, creative tools unsurpassed,

Search engines, human speech to robotics at last.

Let emotions and sentiments remain intact

With humans exclusively and never part.

Halt IT layoffs and let new opportunities arrive.

Jobs aplenty for the youth, pathways to thrive,

As new year dawns, let’s not get stuck in the past

Welcome and celebrate the event with big blast.
