Green



Long slender fingers piercing thy' womb
The rings hidden from plain sight
Perhaps symbolising it's marriage,
With nature, as bride in a green gown
The cusp of life from a dead tomb
Hail! The king with the green crown
Hail! The king of the jungle town
Hail! The king who fought without iron
Almost submitting as an act of penance
Hail? For now the king is dead
The victor feast upon thy body
And all that is left is a stump
All that is left is the decay
And land fertile to bear a new child

The Flight

Weight of a thousand words on quaint pages With black ink dancing on the white floor The enchanting aroma of the binding Shrouding the stuff of magic and amour A dream of midsummer night and The bloody knife through Ceaser's heart A thing of science and the secret of infinite The heir of the rich carries it all The muser, the miser,  The popper and his hopper Imagined the wonders, the four walls hide The bliss, he thinks won't be amiss If he was there and his dreams took flight Not all are fortunate to attain  the joy of learning.There are  few  who  only dream of it.

From the Israel - Palestine issue to Pakistani transgressions in Indian territory- all are a product of historical disputes. I must admit that my knowledge is limited to comment on history but my admission is not enough. (I’m insignificant since my thoughts won’t influence many. Maybe you, the reader, are the only one who would know them.) Unlike me, some people have power- like media or leaders of various organizations- who claim to know everything. I don't doubt their skills or wisdom. They go through umpteen sources before concluding. I'm more worried that history has many versions.

WHAT IF?
