Benefaction Poem by Indira Renganathan

Benefaction

Rating: 5.0


Less of what they were yet happy
Deprived of what we long today
For luxurious golden glitter yet unhappy..?
Masticating memory in making of forefathers
In one house, one family, one home
Unified in one traditional taste
No greed, no jealous, no insufficiency
Measured desires mastered life..


Benevolent economics benefited kinship
Stealthy infirm, invalids, widows, diseased
Never less of deference, never in negligence
In one house, one family, one home
Unified in one familial paradise..
Less of what they were yet happy
Deprived of what we long today
Set apart homes for the needy kin even

'Masticating memories' I wish I can use such beautiful phrases. Beautiful Madam.

Captured the true but pathetic picture of today's scattered family left for ever to crave for warmth which however is nowhere in sight. A write out of your genuine concern will, I hope, let us ponder.
