Banyan Tree

The time comes and goes.......

Destruction, demolition, extinction,

Renovation are all segments of life

Sometimes one exception fosters ample

Ambiguities and seems as a contradictory

To these long persisted extracts

The banyan tree...

Has not withdrawn itself from exuding

Its benevolence and generosity

Enormous changes have occurred

All have revitalized their existing colors

Innocents have become violent

And simplicity has been removed forever

Sympathy, kindness, obligation

Have become strangers to the world.

But still, you have endeavored to sustain

Amidst all deceits, betrayal, and conspiracy

With your voluminous heart

To render mammoth services to all

Your green canopy of myriads of branches

Have become the safest abode for red,

blue, yellow, black and green birds

And the tranquility vanishes humdrum

Of life as it bewitches the beholders

So no narrowness has excelled over

Your spirit to confer your unstinted support

Really banyan ........

you are an exception

Your victory over negativities

Is an indelible souvenir of dedication.
