Nikhil Parekh - Indian Poet


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.


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


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.
