Inspired Inventions Poem by Gautam Sen

A flying kite inspired man for a flight -
a dragonfly instilled helicopter;
a rainbow aroused a painter's delight,
mountains converted man into sculptor.

A shooting star infused a rocket's flight
with speed of a comet added to it.
As dazzled all o'er with lightning at night -
electricity made dark nights moonlit.

Concepts from myths did never get ignored;
Sun's chariot forced the thought of a deal
into many primitive hearts that soared -
so power of a horse was put to a wheel,

Great Masterminds with deep inner notions
unveiled clues before their intrusive eyes;
with their inventions and innovations
they fetched modern science a smiling sunrise.
