Peace on earth
is in an absolute dearth
the wars in a stretch.

I made a garland
it looked grand
I stringed together
the flowers together
two in the upward
two downward
put the twine around
tied a knot
they were held in place
the way I went on
the garland took shape
mixed the flowers
yellow, green and red
had some white and rose in between
the garland turned wonderful
a simple offering to God
being my way of worship.
Deceived by all
she stands there very tall
she did not fall.
Would have fallen
as expected by all
but she grew tall.
She grew tall
because of her resolute call
surprising for all.
she did not fall.
Her resolute call
flaunted others expectations in all
she grew
Rare pieces of art
catch my eye
I wish to buy
the prices being so high
I refrain with a see
that keeps me in glee
I look at those with a sigh
oh! no, the prices are so high.
The monsoon has arrived
showers light and heavy
keeps us in a thrive
the heat taxes, not in a levy
the temperature has come down
the cool mornings with a drizzle intermittent
the noon that used to drown
with perspiration and discomfort incessant
has tamed incredibly to a mild condition
the evenings bring a cool wave bearable
while the nights extend a cold rendition
the days hereinafter would bring in cheer
a welcome respite from the scorching heat.
