Cursing words often used randomly to express,
Nothing of poetic substance, have no meanings to address.
The same boring words in ten poems show the score,
It's as empty and as hollow, as the poems read before.
Growth can never sprout from unploughed barren soil,
And beauty is never formed without diligence and toil.
Each day's a golden chance to nurture one's vocabulary,
For learning is a lifetime effort in this art of poetry.

CHANGING FACES
We with different faces
Came from different places
Experienced in diverse phases
Tendering different cases
Many are the tendencies
If we adhere to our still small voices
Proffering unparallel advises
Charging us to stick relentlessly
Many say it is heresy
Presuming we are at events’ mercy
Mother Nature is not a cheat per se
Perseverance show it we may see
Unploughed vegetation proclaim it
Virgin routes announce it
Less trodden paths advertise it
Less dared woods justify it
To become a face in this place
You need awesome grace to race
To be notable in your race as a face
Showcase your pace for an unselfish case
Unploughed
Fields of
Broken words
