Best Nations Poems

Swept up into piles; everywhere 
Abouts; in collected heaps all 
Around.               
It is almost as if the drab 
Streets were strewn with the 
Precious wealth of King Solomon's 
Gold!  ...

Praise the Ruler of nations!
God is mightier than anybody:
they try to defeat His army,
but can they win against angels?

Even Jesus, the shining sun,

the massive stone rolled away...
He was no longer mocked by men!

Praise the Ruler of nations!
Proclaim His name from...

urban leaves turned
Autumn, sniffing around

At times, go public spending
And twice, will the salaries of functionalism
While they fleece the public treasure
Easy-going, claim the subdued
At the profuse bronchitis of patriotism
At the mercy of poor care

Get up, come and join us will
The scum of nations
Countless like the grains
In the deep Oceans
And the...

A Tale of Two Nations

Under one flag
with many stars
and even more shame
two nations to choose
Guns or Roses

One opposed to death of children
and free choice for all the women
the other revels in blood and guns
imposing their lack of morals
on us all 

One Nation loves education
the other...

Villanelle : Nations barely survive the turbulence of international events

Nations barely survive the turbulence of international events
Yet end up like interpersonal relations with other nations
Nations rise and fall yet some hardly ever merit compliments

What great Luxuor grandeur falls now to Egyptian peasants
The glory of five...

A nation of interesting and laughing facts
housing ‘backward never’ animals
with three times more sheep to humans in its corners
and the inventor of the selfie, attracting over 200 global settlers.

has its native attempting the sale
of another major one from a neigbouring...

Oh, if I could pen of things meaningless!
And stop this interminable soul undressing.

This world, these times we live in, I do care about.
I wish citizens would loudly against murder shout.

Oh,no of sunflowers and Spring only do do we sing.

On the streets of lively Mumbai,
Close to the sandy Juhu,
They serve Chaat and Masala Chai,
To make your heart go Yoohooo!!

The English, Locals and Arabs!
Jews, Africans and Chinese!
Gather to the aroma of the herbs,
And to relish the Indian Cuisine!

Vending stalls have lined the route,
As the natives...
