Emblem of Cleverness
You are far-sighted
Versatile, calm, and sublime
And the sense of heading for goals
Is visible with your
verbal brilliance
No more hassle for
babblets’ response
Though the inseparable plights against you are harsh
The arduous, ambitious
candidate’s epitome
To be reserved for our next tenure
You who accomplish
all the necessary processes
With an easier, sublime intuition
And the emblem of cleverness
Is illustrated when you
address the nation
The clairvoyance and perseverance
And the sense of leading
the nation
When beholding you every second
The power of good governance is significant
– Sisira Desaman Kumara
War
War clouds loom all over the world, sans a silver lining
Bringing death, devastation, and destruction to all
Nuking will spark a towering inferno, resulting in
total annihilation
Warmongers rake in world resources by exploiting human weaknesses like greed, hatred,
and violence
But nature has provided all the resources for needs, not for greed
Be peaceful, kind, and truly sharing within
Then the world will be
peaceful, ensuring harmony
– H.P. Sugunasinghe
