                    A VERDANT HEART FOR
                        AN IDEAL FUTURE                                      MEGALOMANIAC
         Refine a piece of world, growing organic;             Drenched with fame
         Akin to front line warriors fighting this pandemic    Addicted for name
         Life begins the day, you start a garden;
                                                               Oh!  What a taste !
         Not as a profession, but with a passion.
                                                               It is to be in power game.
         Purpose of gardening is primarily a recreation;
                                                               Mind gets shadowed
         Rewards are edible and handy in decoration.
                                                               Soul gets narrowed
         The hum of bees is the voice of garden;
                                                               Oh! What a waste !
         Pleasant thoughts and dreams are the flowers
         in a garden.                                          Of a happiness that is borrowed.
                                                               Values go over looked
         Decide what to plant and where to begin;
                                                               Words are over cooked
         For the first-time gardeners who step-in.
         Care for this wonderful creation;                     Oh! What a deface !
         Be a ‘verdant heart’ for today’s generation.          In an abyss displaced.
         Kids explore the garden with their age-               Power gives a chance
         appropriate tools;                                    To lead all the clans.
         I  recommend the greens like lettuce and collards;    Oh! What a  haste !
         Easy to grow such as tomatoes and eggplants;          To sway in Power dance.
         Be sure to grow them, as they are full of nutrients.
                                                               Give a minute a thought
         There are no gardening mistakes, only                 To use the power or not.
         experiments;                                          Oh! You get defaced!
         Gardeners learn by ‘trials and errors’ always.        When in power you get caught.
         All gardeners know better than other gardeners;
                                                               Power is like a bait
         Without darkness, nothing comes to birth and
         without light, nothing flowers.                       You get tangled, so please wait.
                                                               Oh! What a way to get erased!
         Farming as a profession of aspiration;                From times ever....to date.
         Half the interest of a garden, is the exercise of
                                                               Power is to share
         the imagination.
                                                               To care and joy declare.
         Pulling up root vegetables is definitely a pleasure;
         The Dictionary may not afford to measure this         Oh! What a sorrowful fate!
         treasure.                                             To fall and loose in bizzare.

         Absolutely it is an instrument of grace.              If power game ran rife

         Patience and careful watchfulness are the basics      For their name to shine and tower
         in it’s lecture.                                      Oh! What a shell encased!

         FUTURE.                                                                             - Mrs. A. Sridevi
