My Country In Peril Poem by gautam sharma

My Country In Peril

Rating: 3.3


Some evils have occupied my country,
And have divided it by a boundary.
My country is entangled in the jaws of corruption,
Which is leading to its destruction.
My country is a land of criminals,
Who are after sometime given bails.
My country is a land of women,
Who are not allowed to use a pen.
My country is a land of masters,
Who with their knowledge are creating disasters.
My country is a land practicing secularism,
But it is also a prey of terrorism.
My country is ruled by superstitions,
Which are leading to its annihilation.
My country is a land of high brains,
Whom quotas give sprains.
A pall of dusk has surrounded over my country,
This darkness stands for illiteracy for which there is no infirmary.
My country is the birthplace of gods,
And people always live in bods.
India is my motherland,
Which has to rise to protect its sand.

You obviously love your country very much and are sending out a plea for help. I hope something changes so your country can get that help. '10! ' Warm Wishes, Marilyn

Outside people are jealous about India, where we stand united despite different languages, religions, castes and creeds. Unity in diversity. That is why they want to create disturbances to our country's peaceful atmosphere. But we will not mind them and we will still stand united against our enemies.
