Sathya Babu Poet Clerihew

Salt March

Gandhi
Marched to Dandi
To fight against taxes on salt,
Non-violence was his axe in this assault.

Andrea Dietrich February 3, 2019 at 3:14 PM This was really clever, which is what I was looking for. I loved the humor of the word axe for your metaphor of attacking violence through peace. Congrats in my contest. Sathya Babu February 4, 2019 at 5:17 AM Hi Andrea: I was writing in this form for the 1st time, Thanks for the opportunity and Thank You for organizing this. Regards, Sathya
