REVIEW OF CHILDREN OF LOST GOD’S
JULY 23, 2014 SHWETA1012    

Author- Tribhawan Kaul

Poetry:Broken lines.Poems are best described when it speaks more in less words,when it takes time to sense the meaning and depth of words ,and is able to enlighten one’s heart with the untold story and a new discovery.

“Children of Lost God’s”,by Tribhawan Kaul is one such book which enlightened my heart with aesthetic lines,speaking of truth,delivering the messages on many issues, keeping loyalty to heart.

All the poems of this book are plugged with plethora of emotions ,and they not only depicts a single flavour ,but engrossed with multiple flavours.Where one poem defines the meaning of love, other defines love for nature.

His poems traces out various fragments of life.Basically he focuses on the topic : Nature, Love, God,Relationships.Also, his poetries gave light on sensitive issues like terror attacks,and the poem tilted ‘Soul Searching’ ,gives an enormous message and meaning to a life, from what we are going through, and the sins knowingly or unknowingly we have been a part of.

Maturity in poetry writing is lucidly shown in his poems. Interesting stories are presented in the form of poems.
My favourite lines from one of the poem is -
‘Dense clouds pregnant with rain.’
The way poet lucidly and intellectually presents the poems ,comparing simple things to an imaginative new level, is way impressive.

‘Nano Poetry’ is my favourite section.In Nano Poetry ,poet focuses on some small ,yet core fragments of life, in the form of short and crisp poetry.In ‘Nano Poetry’, the topic which are beautifully defined are- Selfless, Realization,Dreams, God I love you, Freedom, Dilemma, HIS grace, Dilemma, Ego, Life, Peace, Death, War,Builders, Orphan, Apathy and Helpers.

Here are two lines from one of his poem-
“Whenever and whatever touches my heart
Words take shape in rainbow arch”
So true! His poems truely depicting that his heart melted and waxed in the form of words in this book.Making a rainbow arch, his poetry floats in the lake of different colours.

A book which is apt for an ardent poetry reader, and who loves to grasp the meaning, hidden behind the words.A beautiful compilation of poems where every poem holds the power to nourish heart.

Rating- 4.6/5

एक शेर/ दुपदी (ek shaer/dupadi)

एक शेर/ दुपदी  

रंजिशें बहुत थी हमारे तुम्हारे बीच
प्यार भी गज़ब कि यहाँ तक आ गए.
Ranjishen bahut thi hamare tumahre beech
Pyar bhi gazab ki yahan tak aa gaye.

Peace at work

Peace at work
--------------------
Understanding and love make peace work
Human DNA though cannot be banked upon
War mongers keep selling their wares
Will to survive too dares hawks to strike
Fire unable to differentiate
Hate taking over the senses
Visible become the scars on humanity
Yet dawn doesn’t wait for darkness to flee
Love makes survival a better option
Understanding paves the way for smooth transition
War becomes the casualty, peace rejoice and fly
Like a dove flees from the cage of inhibitions
To soar in the vast sky.

Hospital

Hospital
-------------
Unlimited sufferings and miseries
Taking shelter in this abode
Helplessness fighting
Tooth and nail with despondency
Not easy to gauge
The depth of patient’s emotions when
The life takes an escape route
From the clutches of death often.
A new world it is
Boasting of to- letting pain
Hung between hope and despair
A winner takes it all
and smiles
Loser might have blessed the Death
for end of one’s misery.

हॉस्पिटल !
--------------        

बेपन्हा कष्टों और दुखों को देखा है मैंने
हस्पतालों में आसरा लेते हुए
लाचारी की भी हिम्मत देखी है मैंने
निराशाओं से टक्कर लेते हुए
आंसन नहीं रोगियों की मनोबल को समझना
जिन्दगी को
 भी देखा है मैंने
मौत के चंगुल से निकलते हुए.

एक नई दुनिया है यह , अपने में हर दर्द समेटे हुए
आशा निराशा में हर कोई त्रिशंकु बने हुए
जो जीत जाये यहाँबस वह मुस्कुरा देता है
जो I गया ,वह मौत को दुआ देता है.

Asspatal
----------
Behpanah Kashton aur dukhon ko dekha hain maine
Aspatalon mein aasra lete hue
Laachari kee bhi himat dekhi hai maine
Nirashaon se takkar lete hue
Aasaan nahi rogiyon kaa manobal samjhna
Zindgi ko bhi dekha hai
Maut ke chungal se nikalte hue

Ek nayi duniya hai yeh, apne mein har dard samete hue
Aasha niraasha mein har koyi trishanku bane hue
Jo jeet jaye yahan, bas vh muskura deta hai
Jo haar gaya wh maut ko dua deta hai.

Expectations

Expectations
-------------------
Expectation. a human trait
Always injurious if not fulfilled
Love knows not give and take
Asset to conquer the world
With Share and care
Happiness blooms
Mind sprouts vibrations
Of successful union.

A Simple poem :- Poems

A simple poem :- Poems
---------------------------------
Poems are like flowers
Seed sowed in the mind
Inked through heart
Flowering in different ways
In themes, essence and shapes
Catering for creative minds
Direct, indirect,
From the heart or intellect
Soulful or poignant
A loner’s lament,
A lover’s moan
A soulful tone
A happy reunion
A false illusion
A thought divine
A visit to shrine
A solitary pain
A wife’s disdain
A dreamer’s dream
A heart’s scream
A love profound
A trust abound
A soldier’s sacrifice
A pet’s demise
A mother’s love
A poet’s dove
Anything you name it
A poem will tame it
Fractured texture
Or with a rhyme
Under the shelter of vast universe  
When words begin to shine
Luring every creative mind
Like a bee to nectar
Extracting honey of its own kind.

Soul Searching By Peace

Soul searching by peace

Standing before the mirror gazing self
twin one croons,
“history of wars, fights, skirmishes
have already taken toll of you
terrorism of every dimension
now becoming sin number eight
what is to expect now from you ?”
It questions simple and straight.

“Sometimes you are scarred
Sometimes you are battered
Sometimes you are crossed
Sometimes you are martyred.

So
Are you dead ?
Nay, I dread
you are not yet,”
whispers my mirrored friend.

“eighth sin has no place
war has no grace
let more sunshine be there
for everyone and everywhere
undoing mean human mentality
let darkness not prevail
blinding us till eternity.”

“Rise, rise, rise once again
show your prowess
hold tightly drooping reins
 peace, humility and harmony breeds
great civilizations

don’t dump into dustbins
God’s own beautiful creations.”

“Alias love, compassion and brotherhood

you can’t be dead
wake up and change the mindset
for the sake of entire humanity
 make violence to shed violence
apartheid to shed bias
states to terminate conflicting ways
with false vanity
and embrace you
with heart and soul
global peace be only your goal.”

Could withstand no more
allowed it to merge in mine
my conscience ready to take on
all the violent ways head on
for peace and harmony.
