Genetic Scissors

 I was teaching science in school. Doing science arts writing is my passion. I wrote a poem#"Genetic Scissors," and pasted it on the notice board. I am listing below the same poem.

Genetic Scissors 

Dear genetic scissors,

Dear genetic scissors,

You are not ordinary tailor scissors,

You edit DNA genes,

So special are your works,

So are the motives of your works,

For the welfare of mankind and plant life,

Please set out in your soul searching,

As you read, the coming time is also searching,

My friend has genetic scissors!

When used precisely, you have a lot of potentials,

To transform human and all other life forms,

To correct deformities of DNA genes,

You can cut and paste genes,

You open up possibilities of design babies,

You can bring cosmetic perfections,

Please set out in your soul searching,

You're right, use; coming time also searching,

My friend genetic scissors!

PS-Many good students approached me for a discussion. I explained to students how length of the telomere, of a gene in one's DNA, present on the tip of the gene, plays an important role in curing cancer. The same genetic Scissors have the capacity to make changes in DNA and have the potential to push humans towards #immortality. Many trials are being made for implementing this research as# medical procedure. Let us hope that soon we will be successful.
