World A Battlefield Poem by SALINI NAIR

World A Battlefield



Sun shine in an apparent way
It’s so pleasant and quiet all way
In a Sudden wash off that spread around
Fire that stretch to the sun so high
Fumes that wave blues around
Swathe all shine and dart to hide
Calmness that remote to cross fire
A sigh and hold to the way of life
Long field where terror reside
Corpse that spread all around
Parts that stretch and take long way
Body parts that shiver apart
Dried and tainted all side
Shoulders that couch and take to life
Breathe that tilt underground
Pits that ground weapons anonymously
Graves that mount and sniff inside
Long parch that make generations apart
Whisper that hold in search of the next
Martyr name wrote on history
Pedigree that march to refuge
Tears that never shed in terror
Moments those are counted and terrific
Orphanage where lean love and life
Set merely for power and treasure
Set some times to worth own belief
Destruction that spread around
Black side that cover the mighty earth
What all war sows are some monuments
Tears that mixed with blood
Only hatred that reside
For single, a single rise and its fall! ! !

What all war sows are some monuments Tears that mixed with blood Only hatred that reside For single, a single rise and its fall! ! ! A nice thought in a well written poem.

Calling the world as a stage, as an examination hall, a playground, a circus...or a battlefield signifies the poet's vision or angle with which he/she tries to philosophies life...this one is a strong aspect too that is undeniable...a battlefield with a grim war between the man and the deadly sins is going on, or we experience a daily armageddon waged...thank you salini nair for your poetry!

Beautiful poem Salini. This world is really a battlefield. Hatred resides here. If instead of this, if everyone followed peace, this world could have the beautiful place to live in. Loved it.

This world is a battlefield where we are fated to wage an eternal war... Many get killed, many are orphaned, some become martyrs.... No doubt all wars originate out of hatred.... If we dismiss hatred from our minds, this world would be made a place of peace... A replica of heaven..! ! . A great write Salini!
