Empty seashells

Empty seashells lying on the beach

have stories long and far to reach

Scars are tombs of the pains of the past 

a rusted nail too has a narrative of its past


The Events end but the memories don't

Stories end but the morals don't

people die but legends don't


footprints of great men on the sands of times

will later be the lines of rhymes 

passed on an on by word of mouth 

to the next and next of mankind


History  a graveyard of events of the past

the pages in books are tombs where memories rest

Lessons to be learned and acted upon

inspired from those days that are gone 


The truth and lies

legends and myths

Facts and fiction

gossip and trash 

mixed and served as time flies

as the records and history of the bygone days

In the process pushed the steel chairs and the stool with the steel tea  tumbler  - sending it flying and creating a commotion.  Vishalamayi  shouted, "What is it now?". She ...

 The land of thieves' slaves and treacherous Bandit brutes from the west!!  The rogues and scoundrels Nothing but haughty tramps The nasty beastly hoard from the west Sailed the seas to plunder the east  Finders' keepers Loser's weepers Say petty thieves and pickpockets They display the booty on their royal crowns With no shame or the slightest qualms They walk in pride decked in loot From the very crown to the boot  Shameless wanton and proud display Of the looted wealth from far and away The land where the sun never sets, they say Because the sun too, is scared that they may steal him away
