Poetry

1. ROOTS
The castle in the forest appeared haughty and ostentatious; with gaudy drapes
majestically camouflaging its windows,
Although it had its roots firmly embedded in lackluster mud; which was blended
incongruously with glowworms and reptile.
The ocean looked colossal; with gigantic waves swirling tumultuously towards the
sky,
Although it had its roots in granules of frigid sand; replete with coral leaves and soggy
hillocks of clay.
The gold mines appeared marvelously glittering; emanating a perennial glow of
extravagant prosperity and opulence,
Although it had its roots firmly embedded in obnoxious slabs of coal; a coat of
ghastly black encapsulating its scintillating demeanor.
The silhouette of sun looked stupendously dazzling; emitting infinite rays of fire
permeating pugnaciously through the dark,
Although it had its roots sprawled since centuries unprecedented in the lackadaisical
sky; with placid patches of blue in vicinity sheltering it; to make its dream come true.
The clothes on the prince's body appeared incredibly alluring; with every individual
confronting him; instantly fantasizing himself adorning the same,
Although the royal garb had its roots in innocuous tufts of country cotton; sprouting
in multiple clusters from the ground.
The edifice overlooking the shopping mall looked gargantuan; with several bystanders
transgressing the streets; admiring it unanimously in open mouthed consternation,
Although it had its roots in dexterously ploughed soil; juxtaposed commensurately
with raw cement and concrete.
The President's destiny appeared enchanting; as he stood tall and domineering on the
dais; with an indomitable spirit to conquer profoundly lingering in his eyes,
Although it had its roots in the lines of his spongy palm; the labyrinth of mounts and
stars impregnated in his tiny fist.

2. The Banyan tree looked like a fascinating fortress; with scores of animals and birds
wandering vivaciously through its cascading branches,
Although it had its roots deeply embodied in recesses of moist earth; and a
conglomerate of nutrients in the same; nurturing it to rise to unbelievable heights.
And the Creator appeared invincible; with the entire universe distinctly visible; each
time he opened his mouth,
Although he had his roots entwined with philanthropic simplicity; the rudiments of
equality granting him the unprivileged aura of ruling over the entire cosmos; residing
in every heart that throbbed benevolently; palpitated passionately for life.
