GOLDEN

 

GOLDEN

 

Intense scrutiny, life searches,

Contemplate world manifests,

Life span decades, hit century,

Desires type shining mercury, (1)

 

Fluid nature moves, stays rarely,

Gold symbolic coin lust fairly,

Eons life witness fight rivalry,

Gold changes heart savagery, (2)

 

Father, son, in bitter battle try,

To ditch to cheat to curse lie,

Appropriate property cruelty,

Sons deprived widow mother, (3)

 

Her destiny is a shelter home,

Gold her possession lo stolen,

Look at a gold ring gem sparkle,

Once loved acquired struggle, (4)

 

Son wants my chain or rings,

In bank deposit loan strings,

Confess his study, successful,

His voyage abroad career rule, (5)

 

Link the loans mortgage gold,

Bank, appropriated home sold,

Neither rings nor house to stay,

Meager pension rented house, (6)

 

Gold created the chasm wide,

Twilight years, alarms divide,

Today, coin in hand, but gold,

Tomorrow, alas, someone, hold, (7)

 

Tried, built house mortgaged,

Lost my son lost home gazed,

A lifelong friend amassed gold,

Beautiful mansion asset hold, (viii)

 

Pride visibly thanked his luck,

Luckiest guy in the city, sock,

Gold never can provide joy,

Miseries from sickness envoy, (9)

 

Family quarrel jealousy fuels,

Peace, happiness, left a sequel,

Golden life analyzed lo failed,

Tall skyscrapers, city life link, (10)

 

Gold transformed life, yet sink,

Seen enough tension, worries,

Let hundreds of tragic stories,

Not any of friends, well to do, (11)

 

Failed to say happy, tell rude,

Escape, escape, be alone live,

Leave hunger for gold, believe,

Simple life serenity in nature, (12)

 

Human nature is pure assure,

Landscape rustic is paradise,

Golden cornfield ripe surprise,

Wind plays sways standing crop, (13)

 

Found the value spirit envelop,

Not gold, granaries are golden,

Gold can never be food shaken,

To live to grow to propagate tell, (14)

 

Coin or gold can save lives well,

Fasting, let feel the hunger truly,

A morsel of food, happiness fully!

Golden aura cornfields ripened. (15)

SHRIVELED

 

SHRIVELED

 

 

Confess life counts number,

Seasons move ahead, flutter,

Incessant motion changes lit,

Blossom colorful dried intuit,(1)

 

Verdure green now brownish,

Dry leaves to the ground unleash,

Violent wind lifted leaves high,

Detached from the trees sign, (2)

 

Misses identity past is dreamy,

Dried petal dusts accompany,

Wind motion induces summer,

Leaves petals dry seeds wear, (3)

 

The whirlwind afternoon time,

Lifted from the ground, moved fine,

The different realms amaze me,

Rain comes drifting lives trim, (4)

 

Leave petals changed to dust,

The soil germinated, its host,

Stood speechless, silent watch,

Dry leaves green leaves catch, (5)

 

Look at heaven nectar pour,

Magic wand sprouts life hour,

Moisture heavy breeze tends,

Beneath the soil, the root extends, (6)

 

Life cycle heart emotional wet,

The tree missed, but to resurrect,

A hundred miles away, designed,

Implanted at fertile soil signed, (7)

 

A bush mesmerized to identify,

Long stem branching out high,

Years after flower fragrant link,

Different time season bud wink, (viii)

 

Smiled the young growth green,

Not a dry leaf sway stems clean,

Rest under the tree, shaded, well,

Inclined to the trunk, soul swell, (9)

 

Myriad thoughts introspect life,

Time plays germinator to strife,

Acts as terminator dried leaves,

Inflame wildfires burn, believes, (10)

 

The key lies in propagation here,

A gust of wind, playing like a savior,

Whisked away dry seeds further,

Forest rain generates if superior, (11)

 

Smiled at wrinkled skins mine,

Shriveled life age indicates, define,

Human limb resembling a dry leaf,

Fallen to the ground mix belief, (12)

 

Petal humans wear nature well,

Flowers indwelling love prevail,

Bear the seed, human his attribute,

Fallen leaf fallen shriveled flute, (13)

 

Swan songs of life flute played,

Shriveled human frame relayed,

Soul resemblance seed travel,

Time like winds womb unravel, (14)

 

It is evening back home reveal,

Plant life or human shrivel reel.

Procreation propagation wind,

Greens dry shriveled remind. (15)

IMMENSITY

 

IMMENSITY

 

 

Probes life contemplate, retired,

Creator His gift to life inspired,

Surprises, the master to choose,

The womb, His decision infuse,(1)

 

Discovers time newborn share,

If silver spoon, if not gold stare,

Loud cries but pleasures visible, tell,

By birth, inherit millions, detail, (2)

 

Wait two generations, desperate,

The clan, inheritance, intimate,

Easier life grows phenomenally,

Aristocracy inborn no anomaly, (3)

 

Same, the second, at a different place,

A mud cottage, a birth interlace,

The womb of a sick mother risk,

Birth of a child, her hand frisk, (4)

 

Relived, breaths her son thinks,

Baby is a son, not daughter links,

Her aspirations ambit limitless,

Dreaming on a sickbed impress, (5)

 

Her poverty community inherited,

Child and womb identified, super hit,

The silver spoon or golden exists,

Mediocre life, lazy, luxurious list, (6)

 

Enjoys life flattens less worries,

Unknown to him, lack miseries,

Plays well, sleep well, food tasty,

Marriage in time children hasty, (7)

 

Birth, wedding, and death news,

People gather to observe to diffuse,

The child in the cottage develops,

Grew to be the leader time hopes, (viii)

 

A leader of the country popular,

From peasant rises spectacularly,

The sick mother got well watch,

People treat her son the match, (9)

 

Match with divine grace a birth,

supersede a silver spoon worth,

Illiterate rustic mother cradled,

Creator liked her son, saddled, (10)

 

The seat is not on horse country,

Destined to mantle quick entry,

Rose from a root ground phoenix,

Ordinary farmer a time transfix, (11)

 

In contrast to luxury comfort gold,

His lifestyle is simple to service bold,

Service to the sick, poor, and needy,

Creator cast a spell less greedy, (12)

 

No interest in family life, single,

Service to the country is simple,

Magnetic charms electric word,

Inflames million heart forward, (13)

 

Symbol of prosperity, boldness,

Decisions, out of the blue, impress,

Child with silver, golden spoon,

His name fades, in memory soon, (14)

 

The second his birth was recognized,

Nation remembers the date prized,

Legacy eternal memory lane lit,

Immensity Lord's intention tilt. (15)

MOMENTOUS

 

MOMENTOUS

 

 

Fag end of the generation noted,

Born after the nation is liberated,

Colonial rulers quit long shores,

Less chain centuries-old allures, (1)

 

The wind water granaries forest,

Rivers fertile soil habitation test,

Free is the country in front stare,

Poverty, illiteracy, divisive life hire, (2)

 

Fractured the unity, futile fought,

Divided a country, stays distrust,

Female feticides child marriages,

Encounter bride burning phases, (3)

 

A generation from coin or lantern,

Bullock cart thatched roofs learn,

Late came radio free newspaper,

Road or train bus towns prosper, (4)

 

Growing population education lit,

Higher education is cheaper hit,

The assets of the nation, literacy,

Country forgot serfdom prophecy, (5)

 

Dreamed of bringing a golden era, 

Population growing industry aura,

Communication to infrastructure,

Seven decades, our twilight year, (6)

 

Disbelieve revolutionized decade,

Gadget electronic wireless invade,

Intelligent-machine, the computer,

Marvelous invention space secure, (7)

 

Unthinkable, scientist job achieve,

Challenges complex tests survive,

Looked aghast, never life believed,

Man and moon, machine thrived, (viii)

 

Moving to the moon, journey trail,

Astronomical distance cover well,

Soft landed, rock-strewn craters,

Dusty less gravity, atmospheres, (9)

 

Hostile moon surface land tackle,

Science & Technology did simple,

Astonished, a billion-plus people,

Glued to television sight miracle, (10)

 

The computerized screen, dictate,

Thousand miles to communicate,

The Moon Lander obeys correctly,

Gradual descent, automatically, (11)

 

The fuel, ignition, engine control,

Rotate the Lander, a vertical fall,

These moments for a touchdown,

People, the world fear, breakdown, (12)

 

Failure several earlier happened,

Correct a soft landing gladdened,

Overjoyed across all ages, gender,

Numbed breathtaking encounter, (13)

 

People, breathless for a split second,

Touchdown, distant moon commend,

News, the success spread a wildfire,

Dreams seven decades to inspire, (14)

 

Space travel reality a country boasts,

Momentous lived-to-the-day hosts,

Tearful, overjoyed land and future,

My prayer for children study sure. (15)
