REPUBLIC INDIA, NOW IN A SLUMBER..

E-mail Print PDF

Authored By Anitha Rajesh:

Darkness and dullness creeping and sprawling in,

With dearth of Sun and shine, that vanishes to beam afresh

Fear and frantic, chaos and clutter, spreads this dusk

Panic and stress, distress and dumps sweeps and swells

 

Dragons and serpents out from the hide, stroll and prowl

Vampires and leech hustle in relish, sucking and sapping,

Reign and triumph as sages and scientists dazing ‘n sleeping

And, snuggling as bugs in a rug and straying in their dreams

 

Dreams that splashes the hues and vibes of bash and spree

Fun and frolic   running so high, that filling and spilling

Through malls and marts, with bottle and blonde

Merry and cheer, tide is so high that sweeps the whims

 

Facts are not fancy that stares so fierce and pierce in deep

Raise many questions ‘n sought many answers that kill the sleep

Dreams or slumber pester with nothing, but minister ease

Pricks and pokes on qualms and ethics, yield no comfort

 

Welcomed or not, sought or not, bright and light won’t wait

Sun ‘ll rise and dawn ‘ll reach all nooks, corner, creeks ‘n cracks

Light and lore shines so bright and beyond the clout ‘n control

Will shake the Brain ‘n wake them up from the castle in air

 

Once they leave the slumber and wakes to vigil and guard,

Wisdom will blossom and brilliance will blaze and shield the nation

Darkness will cede and clutter will concede, ‘n evil will hide again

Hopes will breeze and peace will prevail with His grace ‘n bless !!!

MAA TUJHE SALAAM !!
A very pathetic and a very heart touching rendering, indeed ! I've always asked the Indian Philosophers Intellectuals and true media men to come out of their shell and pave a path. We have 'it' in us and we CAN retrieve the lost glory. Many paople like me wriggle in their shoes and keep mum. People like you have the courage to poke in the eyes and bring reality to focus. I know you are a master of words and can twist them as you like them. This piece is another testimony of it. I wish you write more about these matters.
I've read more of your posts but I feel like a pigmy before a Gulliver so more often I stay away from making a comment. Live Long !
