Nature’s Sentinels
Nitin Raikar Sep 2020
Shade giving Sentinels
Custodians of the environment
Infusing oxygenated life
Extending canopies of bliss!

A fine interplay of synthesising solar photons
Food factories to the plant
Self sustainable gifts from the Almighty God!

Bemoan Human apathy
Fragile relations with humankind
Exponential signs of human induced Ecocide!

Oh Humankind!
Oh Humankind!
Wake up to a Nature’s clarion call
Embrace Mother Earths Sentinels

Tree Huggers of the World
Unite in Unison and Eco harmony
Save Trees!
Save Trees!
Cherish God’s Nature
Permeate Environmental Euphony
Demolish reckless Infrastructural Cacophony !!!

Biospherically Yours Forever 🙏🏻

Turmoil
Nitin Raikar Sep 2020
Burning Pyres
Weeping Widows
Charred remains of innocents
Victims of political manipulation!!!

Alas! What has befallen
On this, once omni verdant paradise
A land painted Red
By Artists, who wield brushes
That bathe the canvas of Life
God the Almighty
I pray to you

To instill in the air
The euphony of ringing cymbals
Rather than the cacophony of deafening explosions

For if not
My brethren
Will be drowned
In the Whirlpools of Red Oceans!!!

My poem reflects the suffering of targeted genocides of humankind and also laments the internecine feuds leading to war and loss of human lives...
Nitin Raikar Sep 2020
Confusion confronted me...
Illusion Blinded me....
Hallucination threatened me....
Bogged in a Quagmire of Incoherent thoughts...

Ahoy! A Bolt from the Blue to my rescue
Amplifying glimmer of Wisdom..
A crowning Halo of a thousand Candelas !
Incinerating Ignorance to Ashes...
Trampling Verbosity

Marching Unscathed!
Marching Unscathed!
..... The Soldier in Me🙏🏻

Covid Angels
Nitin Raikar Oct 6
Admist the raging pandemic
Scurrying Souls
Overwhelming Contagion
Omnipresent Fear Psychosis....

Ahoy! Ahoy!
Rises the Phoenix
Epitome of Resurrection
White Armoured Warriors
Scalpels Drawn, Vials loaded
Bracing for the unseen
Adrenalin pumping
Awash with indomitable grit...

Sacrifices galore
Saviours to the Scourge of Humanity
Silent Sentinels
Of a defining epoch...

Veni, Vedi, Vinci....

New Year Tidings
Nitin Raikar Oct 6
Tempus Fugit... Time Flies!!!
Ushering a new dawn of Human advancement
Heralding the prowess of Humanity
Gravi-Sailing through the vagaries of Time
Oh New Year! Oh New Year!!!

We await Thee's blessed tidings!
Straddled firmly in the Cosmic orbit
For yet another circum navigational trip
Transcending insurmountable challenges!!!
Replete with hopes and aspirations!
Soul searching through Cosmic space🙏🏼

Dussehra
Nitin Raikar Oct 12
The Cosmic Roll of the Dice!
Heralding Renewed cycles of Mother Nature
Elevating Seasonal Transitions to Upliftment

Admist this constant flux
Humanity strives for self actualization
Diminishing magnitude of base inner Ego

Soul searching journey through inner realms
Overcoming conflict and chaos
Basked in the Halo of Cosmic Divinity

Wisdom all pervading
Purity Personifying
Defragmenting Mindspace

Oh Lord the Supreme Creator !
On this day of Vijaydashmi!
Blessed towards a Awakening Dawn!
For Spiritual Prosperity of Humanity!

Happy Dussehra / Happy Vijaydashmi
