Old Man With Baggy Specs Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul
Old Man With Baggy Specs
Due to impact of age there is trouble in vision
Old man searches for specs with this reason.
Baggy specs do not fix often do fall down,
Old man tries to fix becoming prince crown.
In the fourth stage of life in search of light,
Righteous old man well with evil does fight.
To know more about deep inside scripture,
He fixes for a while in righteous builds future.
He reads few lines also thinks for a while
He feels tired speaking few words with smile.
Thinks back his life spent in money and matter,
He repents for the past which is not better.
Butter is God's knowledge better to ever earn,
Now he gets ready sure the God's way to learn.
Baggy specs fall slowly from while he does doze,
He feels dozy and also falls far away from gauze.
Brave old man further comes here in strength,
He chants God's name for his unlimited length.
He brings people's attention more towards him,
Values, virtues, peace and purity become beam.
God's know; ledge is just like butter. All should hold this even in old age. Brave old man has strength. This poem is interesting.
perhaps baggy has a different range of uses in other countries or you are just using poetic license. i DID understand its meaning, but here is the meaning/usage of it that i am familiar with [note the reference to 'clothing']. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - bag·gy 'bage/ adjective adjective: baggy; comparative adjective: baggier; superlative adjective: baggiest 1. (of clothing) loose and hanging in folds. baggy pants synonyms: loose-fitting, loose, roomy, full, ample, voluminous, billowing; oversized, shapeless, ill-fitting, tentlike, sacklike, unwaisted baggy pants antonyms: tight, form-fitting (of eyes) with folds of puffy skin below them. his eyes were baggy with the fatigue of overwork noun informal plural noun: baggies; noun: baggy 1. loose and wide-legged pants, shorts, or swim trunks. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - p.s. i've never heard the noun usage of baggy. but i have heard of Baggies (i think that is the spelling) , a brand name of a plastic sandwich bag. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - the use of some of the words and a bit of the organization of words seems foreign to me, but, hey! , we are half a world apart. and probably english is not 'native' to you as it is to me, here in the united states. even here, not all english-as-a-first-language speakers speak alike. thanks for the poet's note. it answered my question: do you mean butter, not better? :) yes, butter; my wife uses a LOT of butter on toast. Old man tries to fix becoming prince crown....when i first read this i think i read prince crown as prince clown, which i thought was a funny image to have of an old man trying to fix baggy specs. now i see it reads prince crown. is this a reversal of crown prince in order to make a rhyme? it worked. thanks for sharing. bri :)
I envy this dear Bri, How do you get away with such longish feedback?
