The Greatest Victory Poem by Nikhil Parekh

The Greatest Victory



The greatest victory for a mother was; when she was able to invincibly protect her child from all evil lurking rampantly in the night; and marathon hours of the sunlit day,

The greatest victory for a soldier was; when he valiantly bore the hostile opposition; waved the flag of his country in the heart of the colossal enemy camp,

The greatest victory for a spotted panther was; when it mercilessly capsized its prey by the neck; ripped it apart into boundless fragments before handsomely devouring it down,

The greatest victory for the black conglomerate of clouds was; when despite the fulminating fire ball of Sun behind; they were able to pour down indefatigably
upon the surface of the earth,

The greatest victory for the inconspicuous little mosquito was; when it sucked gallons of blood from robust flesh; dexterously evaded all in vicinity who tried to capture it,

The greatest victory for the mammoth shark was; when it unsparingly over toppled the mighty ship with her snout; gobbled each of its passengers to satisfy its gluttony for the unveiling hour,

The greatest victory for the diminutive red ant was; when she stung the gigantic elephant on his feet; made him plummet to the ground and taste dust like a
pack of molten matchsticks,

The greatest victory for the ocean was; that it never dried irrespective of the most acerbic of drought; kept swirling with its ravishing waves striking astoundingly against the rocks,

The greatest victory for the gleaming axe was; when it sliced gargantuan stalks of the century old tree with sheer disdain; engendering the lanky stem to collapse with a
sigh on the mud,

The greatest victory for the lips was; when they were able to passionately kiss the girl they desired; taking complete control over her mind, body, and soul,

The greatest victory for the tabby cat was; when she sprang upon clusters of unsuspecting mice; masticated them with whole hearted relish as the first rays of
dawn crept from the sky,

The greatest victory for the blazing fire was; when it charred to raw soot whatever that dared to trespass its blistering path,

The greatest victory for the devotee was; when he was able to appease the creator with his overwhelming devotion and penance; rise to the pinnacle of success
with the blessings of Almighty God,

The greatest victory for the eye was; when it was able to sight the most mesmerizing places in this Universe; keep staring for times immemorial; deeply into the eyes of the person it revered and loved,

The greatest victory for the hideously wailing vulture was; when it viciously plucked out flesh from the body of the dead; feasted on its meal with a flame of exultation burning in its eyes,

The greatest victory for the infinite territories of the sprawling desert was; when it was able to entice millions of unsuspecting adventurers; luring them with its fake mirages which were nothing else but pure sand,

The greatest victory for the blood flowing in the body was; when it blended with the soil in which it was born,

And the greatest victory for Man on this planet was; when he knew himself thoroughly; conquered all his desires and emotions; joined hands with his fellow
comrades; putting in his ultimate in order to save humanity.
