ZERO IS THE HERO

God created the heaven and the earth

In the beginning

It was formless, empty and silent

Emptiness and silent

Implied a blurred concept of zero

Yet nobody knew what zero is

And was hovering invisibly

In the course of time

Reasoning began to emerge

Although mathematics had sprouted out

Greek Pythagoras laid the base of geometry

And Roman numeral

Laid the foundation of mathematics

 Yet the presence of something was missing

Though logic was emphasized

Yet the essence of mathematics remained vague

For many ages

A thin veil was still lingering and preventing

A scholar named Arayabhatta

Happened to born in a humble family

In the Far East land called Hindustan

He tore the curtain of ignorance

From top to bottom

A miracle! Unsolved for ages

Happened to sum up within no time

A marvellous idea, how he rendered

He discovered the funniest thing

He discovered the simplest thing

He solved the toughest thing

He gave the world Zero

The then scholars laughed

 Upon their own wits

Assuming how easy it was

A new era dawned

The zero uncovered

The mysterious of the world

Paving the way

For further discovery

Although zero meant nothing

Yet it plays a pivot role

Hence zero is the hero

N A T U R E

Nature is the combination of both

Beauty and Ugliness

Nature is in every creature

Mighty or tiny

Nature is the mixture of colours

Rainbow and white

Nature is in the form of adjective

Love and hatred

Nature is Almighty God

Creator and destroyer

Nature is at all times right

Throughout day and night

Nature is incredibly sensible

She laughs and cries

Nature is sensitively aggressive

If you hurt and damage it

Who Are You ?

You are omnipotent

You are a tireless ambassador

Neither fast nor slow

Wait for none

You are omnipresent

Neither solid nor liquid or gas

But you are there

Nothing happened to come

Without you

Even a baby didn’t born 
before nine

Neither a rooster crow

Before the time

You are wealth

You are wisdom

Whoever dignified you

Became rich and famous

You are alpha

You are omega

Yet, I ask you

Who are you?

Give everyone the wisdom

To understand your values

(It’s Time)

CAROL OF GLORY

Having guided by a shining star

And trailing the same

Assembled they from near and far

The rendezvous of three magi

Bethlehem, the centre of the globe

Found they a humble cow shed

Where a savior was born

Upon where the star halted

To fulfill the prophecy

Holy infant tender and meek

Was laying in the stiff manger

 Overjoyed they seeing the baby

Bowing down to Him

Offered they gold, incense and myrrh

Angels cradling the child affectionately

Sang the carol of glory

Virgin Mother Mary was in total bliss

The child was illuminating the divine light

To cast out the darkness of the world

To redeem the sinner from the bondage

And to yield exceeding peace to all

By Noel Rai   

GLOOMY EVENING

Lone was I descending

Through a narrow bumpy steep mountainous suburb lane

On the fringe of the western horizon

Soon the sun was going to bid farewell

Chirping birds seemed hurried to their bough

And I was being more inquisitive

Driven by my own humanity

To take this abandoned path

To pay my spared homage

To my friend’s slumbered wife

Know I not where she is sleeping

But I know nearby old paternal dwelling

Down-down beneath the jagged rocks and mud

In deep, in eternal sleep, must be

I think, I pitied

And I know he will not see me stopping here

To search for, in this gloomy evening

As busy he’s downhill in his cozy fresh home

Deprived she is now

Of physical ailments and mental despair

And is reclining in undying peace

I think, I know,

Concealed she is in white rectangular dome above

Around which red, pink, yellow and white blooms

Roses along with the weeds

Bothers her not anything

Neither torrent rain nor the scorching sun,

A light darkening veil prevents me to go any further

Curious and inquisitive though I to bear

In this darkest evening of the year

Must be I back home to be a rationalist

To accomplish my life’s assigned duties.

BURNING TORCH OF THE SOCIETY

Your are the burning torch of the society

You are the brightest morning star of humanity

Let it not turn off till you get yourself burnt out

For you have to pave the way

Because you have to lead your successors

To a brightest way

Although you have to climb a steep mountain

And go through the deepest valleys

Your firm determination

And self reliance will lead you to your destiny

You have to play a pivotal role in the society

But I know you have to face many hurdles

Economic constraint and social dilemmas

Didn’t great people walk on the pebbles?

Just think of Dr. Sarbapalli Radha Krishnan

Who digested all social dogmas

Yet, never gave up his high aspirations

At last, all walks of people fell in his admiration

Hence you are the delicate rays of the mighty sun

You have to consume all the agonies of the society

And you have to lead the masses to a blissful journey

Winter War

Decked in callous gloomy dress

Throwing chilled smile as of her face

Letting everyone know of her presence

Covers she all with an arctic blanket

Receives they with a cozy smile

A class of distinct people

Equipped with warm armour

Diluted blood with toxic liquor

Blends her existence

In their wintry cocktail party

Ooops ! A wretched season this is

For the masses living line below poverty

Begun a brutal war once again

Between poor and winter

Pulling up the shabby blanket

Curls within him a shivering bagger

Upon the stiff nude concrete

Misty winter morn emerge as usual

Blowing the trumpet of its victory

A class of distinct people

Equipped with warm armour

Bestow cash for the funeral

As if performed his social duty
