Go Away Greed

Rating: 4.5


You are unseen but also captured
In minds of many you are featured,
You divert the child well nurtured,
On grazing by you animals are pastured.

Watching the innocent baby new born
You wait and hide to catch with turn,
While child grows little you blow horn
He starts telling things are my in morn.

You are just like colour changing lizard,
You fill in man really negative wizard.
In minds of many you do bring blizzard,
Fishes and birds enter food to gizzard.

By getting you animals loose a steer,
Birds fly with tending to fall with fear,
They fall in confusion who live in sheer,
You motivate for crime and sticks smear.

You do spoil life oh go away oh greed
People fight for hand of land, and seed.
Please do not stay for negative breed,
People are with God now and in creed.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
"Although you are unseen you are captured oh Greed. You are featured in minds of many. You divert the well nurtured child. By you on grazing animals are more motivated for eating more. Watching the innocent new born baby, you with turn wait and hide to catch him. You blow your horn while child grows a little bit. Even in morning he starts telling that all things are my, means his only by impact of you. Like a colour changing lizard you are. In many you fill negative magical power of cheating and doing wrong things. You bring storm like severe snowstorm with high wind in minds of many. To their muscular stomach fishes and birds make entry of more and more food materials. Animals loos a guiding mind of controlling by getting you and they do without direction whatever they wish. By your impact birds fly with fear of tending to fall down. Who even live in completely right path, they fall in confusion while you appear. You stick to them like greasy or sticky mark and motivate them towards crime. Really you spoil life. Oh greed you go away. Because of your presence people fight for only a hand of land and for even a seed. For your negative breed you please do not stay here. Now people are with God and they are in a system of religious belief or faith. That is why you Greed, kindly go away from humanity." This is the theme of this poem. This is written in Odisha, India and dedicated to the people of the world.

3) Powerful theme and most beautifully worded, Mrs. Bhargabi. God's Blessings in Abundance for you and your beloved family. A full 10++++++ for this fantastic poem. I must confide to you that although my poems are here since 2011, I did not know yet how to give responses here on Poem Hunter. Through much help from your spouse and eldest son, finally I could find my way here on Poem Hunter.That was in 2017-2018.

2) Reading this fascinating poem once again, I realize how powerful words it contains, and with excellent end rhymings. This is a very society engaged poem. You take the worst element in society just like that. Straight and direct. My hats off for you. Absolutely Greed is the worst enemy in human life. It births only negativity. Indeed it must not stay. I am sure with our prayings and God's help in our daily blessings, greed has no foot to stay anymore.
