The Beauty of Charkha the Spinning Wheel 3

The Beauty of Charkha the Spinning Wheel  2

The Poem is dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi and his Charkha

Part 3

The rapidly emerging new discoveries
Were influencing and enchanting 
The ever thirsty mind and hearts 
Of every adventure lover.  

The entire Europe and the remaining world
Of that Era 
Almost became crazy 
After watching and witnessing 
The new magic’s
Of that wonderful thirteenth century 
Glued with the stunning new discoveries
Which was appearing one after another
Bewildering everyone of that age.

New stories of love and adventures were appearing 
With new amazing attractions and lore’s 
Which always enchants the human mind
Like the islands of amazements and hope 
Inviting the adventurers and young lovers 
To come and see, to enjoy and relish 
A totally new more intoxicating and elegant 
But untouched wine 
Of the unexplored East.  …

Stories about of these unknown lands 
Had already reached and stimulated  
The young throbbing mind and hearts 
Of the new young voyagers and lovers
Who were keen to go and bring with them
An entire new world 
For their sweet hearts and beloved’s.

Many voyagers were ready 
With their long cherished longings and dreams
Which had in them 
The hidden untold desires and ambitions
Equipped with God gifted muscle powers
To mold anything and above all 
They had the bold and strong determinations
To throw themselves and their ships 
On the waves of the vast unlimited 
And unexplored oceans
Without caring for the sea storms and
High rising waves.

I am thankful to all those friends, who have liked this new a little different series. For the last 7-8 days I was facing some serious computer problems and the internet problems due to which I was away from the world. Now I hope to place other parts of this Poem -at least twice in a week. I am grateful to all those who have found this series interesting. With best wishes ..Ravindra K Kapoor
