His Destiny

     

 His Destiny

*************

Skeleton  of an old coconut tree,

Stands erect among pygmy plants,

Looks at the long distant horizon-

What his unknown Guest wants!

He is far above the elixir of life,

Which floods greenery of ground,

His destiny is to search in space-

Ultimate home,where Death is found.

Below,on the ground of muddy, soil,

Peeps out another tiny, coconut plant,

Mother Nature replies the destiny,

This is Fortune-that I want.

MY DEAR ENEMY

My Dear Enemy

************************

I know you, I recognize you,

You are one, in the long row,

I smile and welcome you,

You are my enemy, you are the foe.

Hatred is in the core of heart,

Chilled in the inner cage,

But modern trend teaches me,

-Paste the smile, on the face.

Weapons change with the age,

Now bloodshed is not seen,

When opponent opposes you,

Pretend all red signal; green.

All seem friendly, all well wishers,

Like next to kin, in the town,

All give firm support to leg,

And wonder! I fall down.

A friend may neglect me,

But enemy will never depart,

I may live in friend’s mind,

But I reside in enemy’s heart.

Now life is to act, not to live,

Society is one stage, as a whole,

At the cost of profitable deal,

Enemy and friend, change the role.
