OUR POEM
Our poem speaks of love
From electronic to platonic
From supernatural to cosmic
From Nomadic to humanistic
And from ironic to logistic
For the robotic to divine god;
Our poems are the poems of
Art, architecture and sculpture
From clown to the crown
It speaks of altruism in reliability
Politics in secularity and
God in monism and Brahma
Our poem is the poem of parity
Of man and woman
Speaks of workers, labours and wagers
Speaks of integrity of dust and grass
Speaks of sweat and tears of twisted muscle
Of tribes and savages in democracy
Our poems speak of one nation
One life and one world beyond colour
Speak of Veda and the Bible
Speak of white, green and saffron
Speak of mind in kind and in degree
Our poem is the poem
Of the broken and the beaten
Speaks of patriotism and nationalism
Speaks of hope in despair and gloom
Speaks of joy in sorrows and tears
Speaks of patience and tolerance
Our poem is your poem and their poem
Under the same sky in same ambience
They come of different souls
But speaks of same rhythm of blood,
And speaks of heartbeat of mankind
Through even and uneven passage
Our poem is the poem
Of all ages to come from genesis
Speaks of science and conscience
Coalesced into metamorphic divinity
Speak of technology of cosmography
Theolog and phenology
Through amity and reciprocity
Our poem is the poem
Of the whisper of the soil
Brought up in her cradle
Speaks of the common and rundown
It comes spontaneously to mind
As new leaves appear on branches
Our poems speak of the ancestors
Speak of struggle for life against injustice
Speak of victory of tradition
Speak of their obscure history in astral sky
Speak of their sacrifice for freedom
Hovering in the air as possibility for the new
Our poem speaks of harmony in relations
Between man and man, and man and thing
From dust to mount, and drop to ocean
From finite to infinite, and tangible to intangible
From Iliad, Odyssey to Gitanjali and so on
From Aristotle to Kant and Descartes’
Our poem speaks of dynamic philosophy
Between physical and infinite truth
Reflected on Einstein and Tagore’s encounter
Left a lasting mark in history of renaissance
It is our poem for human universe
Breathed into Satyam, Shivam and Sundaram
Our poem speaks of the doctrine
Of absolute humanity out of separatism
Converged to the point of entity
Dispersed in rays of souls
Strewn everywhere.
