Hatred of unholy fervor
Anger of fire and vigor
Tears of agony and sore
World couldn’t ask for more.
Vanity of dreams bygone
Unfulfilled desires galore
Gloom of melancholic yore
World couldn’t ask for more.
Pangs of hunger and torture
Insipid days of plunder
And those calls for war
World couldn’t ask for more
Hope and distant Shangri La
Holy Elixir so yonder
Freedom and peace that endure
World dreams for more
............for more....

Nice, Matt! I loved the play of words, and the way they sound - together bringing about a passionate feel that at once conveys hope and pathos!
:)
U mind if I take this one up as an exploration in alliteration for my next batch of students?
;)
@Velu
Thanx for the inspiring comments..
I never mind !! ;)
But guess this one is not a proper alliteration!!! isnt?
So many times I have wondered where do all these images come from! It is a marvellous image....
By the way, the same is applicable for your poem also. :-) Resplendent.... Good mix of words...
Pangs of hunger and torture
Insipid days of plunder
And those calls for war
World couldn’t ask for more
my favt lines.. well done.
A sparkle! so you can also light fire in the hearts apart from making it laugh. You really sauted desperation and gloominess and exhortation with the ray of anticipation. What better way to end than this?
