EQUABLE
Far
from conflicts erupts crisis,
Unheard
of bitter war skirmish,
Unscrupulous
behavior, absent,
Manipulative
tactics, acting saint, (1)
Phenomenon
visible, wise lives,
Immensely
rich, educated hives,
Beehives,
a hundred stories high,
Lifeless
metal roads, asphalt, a lie, (2)
Spider
net narrow lanes curious,
Packed
cars, bikes, life crisscross,
Busy is
life clock dictates totally,
Congested
million lives work ally, (3)
There
is sport, celebration dwell,
Arterial
artificial parks time hail,
A
plethora of flower plants colored,
Green
fields soft water showered, (4)
Respite
for caged birds chatting,
Long
lines for cinema hall sting,
There,
stay, polite and decent family,
There,
hide, cheat, mafia, unruly, (5)
There
stay police watch the city,
Twenty-four
hours duty life pity,
There
runs, moving bus or train,
Connecting
to cities visit strain, (6)
Concepts
salary retired pension,
Innumerable
banks, pretension,
The
change lives richer shatter,
Sink at
times a bank life flutter, (7)
Miracle
of modern times shines,
Sad
incident of murder defines,
Unthinkable
crimes terrify lives,
Prefer
a million lives, still thrives, (viii)
Puzzles
migrant life throng long,
The
slum worth watching wrong,
Noting
they get only poverty link,
Untimely
death, illiteracy to blink, (9)
Far
from glittering city abode tell,
Lives
rustic villages cluster detail,
Surround
verdure pristine scenic,
Fresh
air, clean water, fruits, tonic, (10)
Simple
believing folks, quiet life,
Desist
to quarrels, resist strife,
They
tolerate and accommodate well,
May
happen flood dry spell dwell, (11)
Simple
life a few dresses sample,
Thatched
cottages, dishes ample,
Twelve
months equal festival lit,
Variety
of cakes, sweets, excite, (12)
Here
flows the river serenity tilt,
Melt
young heart river boat lit,
Bathing
Ghats farmlands lined,
Happiness,
peace, visible, refined, (13)
Attract
nearby forest hill valley,
At par
with paradise, sight tally,
Good
education yet scrupulous,
Carry
the culture custom onus, (14)
The
spine of the land, peasant,
Harvest
season, smell pleasant,
Awe-inspiring
village life exotic,
Equable,
equitable, empathetic. (15)
