Now or never

"Actions speak louder than words” goes a famous saying./ But in reality it’s just speeches, fights, arguments, blame-laying./ Parsis should multiply in numbers; not divide fighting each other/ wasting precious time and money on ego pampering, rather.

The blame game is very common among us all/ But this is the time to build bridges, not wall(s)/ The sooner we realize this truth, the better it is/ Soon it will be "now or never.” Bitter truth is this.

If we resolve to take this most urgently; immediately/ If each and every Parsi boy and girl pledges earnestly/ To marry within the fold; at an early age and have kids four or three/ Fresh new blossoms of spring will be soon seen on this tree.

May this Zarathushti tree proliferate with blessings from Ahura/ For three sons and three daughters had our Havovi and Spitaman Zarathushtra.
