The King Cobra

Rating: 5.0


I am a king cobra; having the power to bite.Can kill even a live elephant. My bite and venom is so powerful. My appearance you tremble while seeing. But now I am a helpless victim of your cruelty.No where to go and catch my prey. My habitat is lost by clearing the forest. plenty of bushes and small trees. My source of water was from the spring. You destroyed with your power. I am a helpless victim at present. I came to your beautiful house and yard. Where I have to reside with you. I know my days are numbered. But still I think you will be trembled with fear. I am a king cobra with helplessness.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

This is an unusual as well as an interesting poem. Only a lover of nature can write a moving poem on King Cobra. If man destroys nature and the habitat of animals, then where can they go? I like the way, the poem has ended - King Cobra with helplessness! Gangadhar, an effective poem with a message! .......10
