Of Poems, Photos and Paintings: The Poetry of Sir Ashok Chakravarthy Tholana (India)

Image
  "A LIFE IS" By: Ashok Chakravarthy Tholana In the life’s game Whom to blame, Whom to tame, No change is same, It’s all but in the game. Yes, empty handed We all have descended, Like footprints in the sand, We leave with empty hand, Is it not real; how it sounds? Bounded by destiny Grounded by tyranny, Midst the clutches of money, Age shortens the journey, Life looks totally thorny. After the painful thorny paths Welcome the flowery paths, Joys and pains are common, Failure and success are common, Yes, a life is always uncertain. All rights reserved. "AS A WRITER" By: Ashok Chakravarthy Tholana  Mind weaves thoughtful words carefully To compose ever-new verses poetically; Yes, the beautiful nature entices me often, And bestows ever-new spirit to my pen, To jot something beneficial for humans. The supremacy instinct incites destruction, To achieve this; it unfolds evil actions, To meet selfish goals, it even stirs a war, And, mercilessly it creates death and fear; T...
