Poem
Born after freedom; I witnessed The 25th year Independence Day celebration The Silver Jubilee; the country was underdeveloped, Yet there was jubilation, happiness all over Years went by: I grew bigger I witnessed the 50th too:The Golden Jubilee The country was developing; still there was Jubilation and joy Again years passed by: I was mature I witnessed the 60th too; It was Diamond Jubilee The country was still developing Jubilation and delight prevailed all over Years continued to roll;Then came Platinum Jubilee year of Indian Independence It was 70th year; the country had developed And joy was all over again Today it is 75 years celebration: I know not what to call; and possibly India is a fast developing nation. We are jubilant and happy. This country is blessed! The Prime Minister Hoists the flag on 15 August every year at the ramparts of RedFort New Delhi Chief Ministers do it at the States To merriment of all citizenry Long live India:Maha Bharath The journey hasn’t been easy India fought three wars on its way It hasn’t been a cakewalk Terrorists made country bleed It hasn’t been a smooth ride either Internal enemies wreaking havoc Natural disasters not withstanding Secularism posed challenges unfair Petty politicians playing scoundrels Just as the crooked and the wicked Corruption, lobbies and bank fraud Often killing systems and hope Healthcare and education exploited Nation in control by vested interests Judiciary, bureaucracy playing billiards Mafia and anti nationals running riots Yet our sportspersons bring in Gold We have world class institutions Indian professionals run MNCs And business across the world Our industries are world class Our programmers design for world ISRO is a rocket seller to Globe And most pilots are Indian women India saved half the world from COVID With seclusion and magic vaccines Fed most countries with its wheat Our army is no more a push over India only exports software No hatred; no ill-will;only solutions Indian cuisine is foreigners delight Indian engineers; toast of world HR Indian expats are a welcome lot Indian culture is a much fancied stuff Indian Yoga is a world wonder and Bhagvat Gita a Vedic eye opener In 2046: India will celebrate; ID 100 India will be a super power much before Forget the wicked; forget the treacherous Many like me may be dead; but I hold a promise India will be a nation of peace, prosperity, plenty Nothing will deny India it’s rightful place.
