T.O.T. : SCHOOL RHYME 11

T.O.T. for Tongue Of Truth
That Mama has got in her mouth:

The tongue that God gives you
If He finds you are true.
That, God marks from His abode
And picks the ones who are good --
The goodness of heart and mind
With virtues of the humankind :
Mind of morals and reason,
Heart of love and compassion;
Mind of wishes for others,
Heart of praises for others;
No malice or greed, but need
That you get by own deed;
All conducts that're genuine,
Nor audacious, nor mean;
Nor reckless, nor cowardly,
Nor betraying, nor silly;
Love for truth, for untruth hate,
Freedom from fear and conceit;
Being obedient and decent,
Being tolerant, innocent...

Your tongue speaks if true you are,
If wrong, your misfortune ain't afar;
Your goodness makes your tongue,
And your speech slips not to wrong.

God did notice Mama long
And found in her no wrong, 
Then He did granted her the tongue. 
Mama, owing to her goodness,
Can use the tongue to success. 
And everyone worships Mama as a deity
Because of this divine T.O.T..

And I have hidden the cracks  On my wintry lips  To save from rashes My Valentine's softy cheeks... Well with flushed up teeth, With cleaned up tongue, With exotic ...

THE CHILDREN OF GAZA

                 The Children Of Gaza                               A Blank Verse Thundering in the sky, then rain of missiles... See how they are fleeing arms outstretched  Like the broken wings of storm-hit birds, And see their faces white with fear and hunger And hear their throbbing voice of pain and loss... Over their head, the sky's no kites, no clouds, But fire and fire amidst engulfing smoke, And they are running like the Napalm girl  From Vietnam or standing frozen, like The standing boy from Nagasaki, before Their elders who are whispering in fear Or staring helpless in the gauge of Death... They are the hapless children caught in the war zone. They have no home, no school, no ground of freedom, But sole refugee camps and hospitals  If marching death has spared them of their life. They hear not bedtime tales but sirens of death.  For them,...

THE RETURN : RHYME 100

                    The Return                                   Rhyme 100 Infants gambol about their home With blooms and toys, But they return to mom's bosom For the real joys. Children frolic about the streams, In meads and hedges, But to their home they return for Their real flowerage. Youths do rush about crazy for World's whole treasure, But they return for real living To own life and career.  Adults get sunk into the labour With dedication, But this's the return to raise well Their own children.  The old trudge about the yard Of their nursing shed, But lastly they return for rest To their death bed. ©️ N P Samal
