Tender Coconut Water.


The sweet water from a nut

held in a closed shut

found on a tree top

a lanky tree that grows up

no shoots or branches sidewise

the fronds become broad edgewise

in between the branches grow the shoot

they flower out which seem like tiny roots

the flowers then turn into small nuts

become big and are called coconuts

the tender one holds a lot of water

it is tasty and refreshing as nectar

healthy and  a reviving drink

renews even those who sink

a natural drink quite inexpensive

a gift to mankind all conclusive.tender coconut.

Destruction—-A Painful Phenomenon


Destroy being a forceful ploy

the bringing down of buildings

the shooting of  the human

the spoil of the beauty

the devastation in all

a syndrome of the negative

found in plenty

seen in almost every strain

the destruction as it goes

seen physically as in the cases mentioned

found unseen in the stages not marked

be that of  a longitudinal effect

an oppressing move as exhibited

the tremor and the quake

the tsunami and the storm

engulf and gulp

gobble and consume

almost everything on the scene

trees, living beings and land mass

create a destruction unprecedented

that being the fury of Nature

coming  to the man made

the unmindful shoot outs

the unwanted massacre

all too gory and blood stained

cause a havoc around

making living an issue

Could that demolition by man end?

Could  the social animal behave decently?

if that could be enforced

many deaths and bloodshed

anguish and pain felt

would be dissipated  soon

the world would relish the peace

peace on earth

and goodwill towards men.
