Why Not To Invoke Lords Literary For Sanity, Peace?
Desperate O Man thou to wriggle out of thine own invited trouble caught in queer a cobweb thine of absurdity, illusions, surmises too many, not now at wits end, non-plussed facing the music as well?
Power pelf, name fame, heroism fiefdom, conquests glories all not everlasting dazzlers in realm His kingly, some fall a prey to tales faery of reel taking things for granted living in paradise fools
Not time ironically right, ripe indeed for peep a within, bird’s eye view to embrace reality so stark, why to raze instead muse to create, easier it is to dump in a while than to raise step by step
Cosmos fine did bestow upon mortals lords literary galore to aromatise earth this into heaven, should not take thou leaves a few colourful out of mighty, creative, enchanting minds of yore
Why not to invoke now Hemingways, Eliots, Frosts of America ,Popes, Shakespeares, Keats ,Shelleys of Britain and Sahir Ludhianvis of India many for balming,harmonising bleeding this humanity
Just ponder over what Nobel laureate Ernest Hemingway in his Nobel winning masterpiece “The Old Man And The Sea” asserted like this,”A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”
Showed TS Eliot Nobel laureate another mankind noble a path of virtues three in go one to conclude his poemThe Waste Land :Datta(give), Dayadhvam (sympathise) Damyata (control).Where these now?
How Robert Frost Pulitzer recipient poetwooed poetry lovers with promises a lot in his poem, Stopping by woods…..”But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep.”
The Bard of Avon Shakespeare in Julius Caesar ruminated over cowardice vs valour in this style: “Cowards die many times before their deaths; T he valiant never taste of death but once.”(Iranians reflected enough dauntlessness proving Shakespeare true in the letter and spirit)
Classical a poet Alexander Pope worthy of attracting attention rapt did create line of universal a caution: “Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. “What about foolish a plight of today’s world?
Apostle of Beauty John Keats elated poetry lovers leaping, “A thing of beauty is a joy for ever “and” Beauty is truth, truth beauty-that is all. Ye know on earth and all ye need to know.”(Satyam Shivam Sundram).
Calls upon guys all thee sane,PB Shelley romantic a poet to rise to the occasion to usher in aura of hope creating line this teeming with optimism, “If winter comes, can spring be far behind.”
Poet lyricist of repute Sahir Ludhianvi did create a poem deploring vehemently war in these words, “Jung To Khud Hi Ek Masla Ha,Jung Maslon Ka Kya Hal Degi Jung Talti Rahe To Behtar Hei”(War is itself an issue what solution will it offer to issues, better it is averted).
Bid an adieu then human beings to autumn of bombs, drones, missiles to bloom spells everywhere of spring evergreen of love, amity, fellow feeling,
empathy, harmony, common a brotherhood.
May verses, thoughts fantastic refreshed many dawn upon fiefdomers a few gone berserk as eyeopeners in guise there of silver a lining behind clouds dark deep of awe, pell mell, woes myriads uncalled for !
