Ubiquitous

 The brook will flow
The foliage will sway
In ubiquitous movement
The Earthly Being will remain

While the daughter cries
The son will smile
For in ubiquitous opposition
Humanity will remain 

The mountains will rise
The valleys will steepen their incline
In ubiquitous movement
The Earthly Being will remain

It isn't nature that will die 
Rather the world that shall collapse
For while humanity is dying
With ubiquitous resolve
Nature will remain

It is in our ubiquitous greed
That our downfall awaits 
In our ubiquitous wealth
That our poverty rises
It is only ubiquitous treason
That shall be seen in the end

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place. 

Coromandel Fishers by Sarojini Naidu

Hello! For this post I will be exploring another poem written by Sarojini Naidu, called "Coromandel Fishers". This poem can be taken as an allegory, for although it speaks to fishermen, it's metaphoric value speaks to the nation, and can be considered a wakening call for the people of our country. When I wrote about "In the Bazaars of Hyderabad", I mentioned that Sarojini Naidu was one of our freedom fighters, and believed greatly in the Swadeshi movement. Naidu reflects her passion for India in this poem.
