Happy forever -A poem by R.Natarajan

    Day and night -
    dark or bright,
    our earth rotates.

    Year after year -
    sans favour, sans fear,
    it revolves.

    The concept of time
    emerges and evolves.

    Countless centuries
    churned by the
    charismatic giant wheel are
    compressed and archived in the
    annals of human history.

    Time and distance temper our
    tenure on this terrain.
    The 'year' is time's
    tried and tested template.

    Hear, hear, comes here
    the 'New Year'!
    Oh, folks dear!
    wipe away your tears
    swipe out all fears.
    The grand New Year brings
    great, good and
    glad tidings!

    Let not your conscience
    drift and degenerate into
    'con' science.

    To vanquish evil,
    let's wield 'Love',
    the only weapon that will
    never destroy or kill.
    An uphill task- still
    It's God's sweet will!

   Tolls the bell from
   temple tower.
   May God His blessings
   on us shower!
   Happy New Year!
   Happy forever!
