Once upon a time
there lived a king,
nobody dared to rhyme
nor near him, sing.
People far or near -
those who know of Him,
Never had the guts
to ask a boon like thing.
Rude at heart as he
angry with anyone around,
Wise and famous fled
leaving sycophants only to surround.
His ears had sweet
notes echoing valour.
How the universe waited
to run along with his order.
Never did he know,
tears down the cheeks flow-
of the hungry, thirsty and needy
beyond His wall, the evil smiles glow.
A king of a state should have his own senses, eyes and ears to see and hear the sufferings of his fellow people. Nicely penned here in these lines. Never did he know, tears down the cheeks flow- of the hungry, thirsty and needy beyond His wall, the evil smiles glow. 10+++ for the sharing.
His ears had sweet notes echoing valour. How the universe waited to run along with his order. A king of a state should have his own senses, eyes and ears to see and hear the sufferings of his fellow people. But rarely do they have it. And so follows the torturous life of the subjects beyond the high wall of the royal palace. Beautiful poem shared.
