To Thebabe Of This Century Poem by Indira Renganathan

To Thebabe Of This Century

Rating: 5.0


You've opened an epoch of an empire
You are the emperor of that empire
Kindness and courage in blood
To which bow down people in flood
Me foreseeing in my mind - there, there
Sparks a rise of new sun clearer, nearer
Aren't dreams. True with your demeanor
Darling babe, put in your ear to my mouth
Listen, all the bygone were bitter in death
Now, rise like the new sun empowered
To constellate the subjects united
Into a design of your wisdom for
Peace and prosperity unseen before
Eat not flesh. Eat green
To keep your brain evergreen
For a lasting erudition with keen
Veneration to morals profound and pristine
To signify the babe of the century?
No. Man of centuries. Aye!
