Banyan Poems - Poems about Banyan

A majestic banyan tree standing tall and free, Ages old, witnessing my life's journey . In the lane's corner, its presence stays, Reminding me of trajectory of happiness and sorrows. I reminisce sitting by my bunglow's windowpane, Watching roots curled deep, like life's enduring strain. Birds nesting high, their songs so sweet, Leaves fluttering green, and children squealing with delight...

You waited for me by the Banyan trees, their roots dangling in the air, reaching out to caress your soft skin glistening in the early morning light. We’d sit under their shade, your head placed carefully on my shoulder, watching the wall of crystal waters that fell from the towering rock that stretched to the sky, overgrown and drowning in evergreen and spread into...

I’ve walked Many a mile Since every Rainbow’s End Was just a wish away Every pot of gold Has stayed a wish ahead I’ve walked Many a mile Through smoke-filled haze And alcoholic daze Melody now gone From lonesome cities I took no time To listen then Now I’ll sit a while By the Banyan Tree Draw its cosmic force Replenish my spirit My energy Journey on to Find hope at The Rainbow’s...

Me and memories There I stand, No, not amidst the chaos!! But by the side of a coffee shop. I hardly change even as years pass by; Expressionless, lofty being, I say! Sipping their coffee or tea Some tiny creatures encircle me, Perhaps for my shed and bench to settle; Still never one way, their convos entertain. Oh! There I see, Two birds flying different ways Will...

For two and half centuries standing lone witnessed how people's thought process have grown; Decades of sighting made me to discern the way people behave made me perturb. Is it that the human value system debased; what about the old tradition? Respect for tree missing, they're destroying nature too, creating its annoyance. Migrating birds are avoiding to fly how they'd live, don't know why...

Everlastingly entwined in the Banyan tree. A royal boy who spurned his rightful throne in Cadazan, the mythic palace by the sea. For his childish mistake he'll ever be Neptune's wrathful object turned to stone. Everlastingly entwined in the Banyan tree. Caged, he woefully wails his apology, Minerva's appeal couldn't make him atone in Cadazan, the mythic palace by the sea. Nightly in the...

Overlooked beauty At the backyard of my colony's lane Crumbles an old banyan tree slowly on verge of getting waned Not worthy of a second glance An overlooked beauty as in forgotten time's trance Pulchritude ignored by almost every passer-by Sole witness of ever changing world since ages below heavenly skies Must have given shade to countless travellers in scorching summers Birds slept...

A banyan tree in my courtyard That I had planted ten years ago Looks beautiful with its large limbs As if a beauty queen of monsoon Were entering her adolescence It smiles when gusts of cool wind Touch it with adorable feelings Droplets of rain seems curious To entice it with intoxicating gestures When banyan...

The Banyan Tree I the Atlas carry a home My master strong for his Children seven had built. Shorts and skirts Thunder up my shoulders, All hell let lose, With their galloping horse-hooves, Ride up the stairs full a twenty. Doomsday be here While they make a merry! Platoons of ghosts, Burst through the door, Somersaults quaking me, to and fro. My arms aching in holding...
