49) Messiah
In a mortal womb shall He be again re-born,
To rid our darkness and initiate the golden dawn.
The Pain of the Gods and Man alike he shall bear-
For a new destiny from this terrible fate us he shall spare.
Like the common man shall he suffer and grow
But with a smile, our future's seeds he shall sow.
Silently and aloof he shall walk barefooted on this earth
To emancipate Man and enlighten him of his worth
The Parents' love, protection he shall offer the orphaned
As a brother -caress he shall the hopelessly wounded
None shall now starve for all he shall dutifully feed
His Presence's warmth shall fulfill the desolates' need.
To the material world he shall summon the spirit's light
Even to the ignorant blind He shall solicit Truth's sight
With mortal hands -he shall set off the next revolution
His majesty shall establish the new world for rapid evolution.
I know not when and how the mortal shall Hero become:
"But Ah my Love, I know You will surely come!".

48) The Angry River
Men and women of all ages embarked on the sacred road -
Carrying with them their desires and their little children in the cold.
For the legend of the Ganges was revered world wide-
Her pristine waters cleansed even black hearts that cruelly lied
Hoping to completely cleanse all the dirt of the mind
To touch its banks, in hordes thronged the superstitious blind.
So over the centuries scores of Men came and went -
Leaving behind in the holy river all their sin when they bent.
Amongst the thousands only a few came to humbly bow
For from their immaculate hearts no evil they could sow.
And great respect for the Himalayan river they deeply felt -
Not with Fear but with gratitude to its mighty flow they knelt.
But Many many long years time swiftly consumed-
The rivers silence to indifference was misconstrued.
With Every passing decade man's greed only grew-
"For Our ignorance one day all shall pay"- only a few good knew.
Quietly flowed the river witnessing the sins of man-
His collective misdeed imbalanced even Nature's plan.
One dark day, the threshold had been breached
Sorrowfully to the heavens the river goddess appealed.
The skies thundered a command to release the heavy rain
Now the silent river shall no more bear her burden,her pain.
Her turbulent flow now even the biggest boulder couldn't cage
Even the mountains shuddered at her furious rage.
Like a charging behemoth whose chains come unbound
Bringing a Tsunami of silt and all the debris that could be found.
Cities, men and beasts alike-the angry river consumed
In its path of destruction ,even innocent lives were doomed.
Yearning for loved ones everyone knelt down in the aftermath.
All young and old togetherfaced for the first time-ganges' wrath!
"It's so very sad to think these lives all went in vain
Will our human nature still unchanged remain?"
