"Lordly knight in armour gray, where dost thou

march toward?

With soldiers trailing at your back, as you move

straight onward?"

"These men I lead shall go with me to lands far and

forlorn.

For now they head with me as we shall conquer

Avalon."

The merry man, his wishes and his blessings are

bestowed,

Upon the fair soldiers who march beneath the

shroud,

Of clouds which hide the morning sun to shine upon

the land.

"The citadels of Avalon will crumble by my hand!"

The arching thunder lights the sky, mountains start

to crumble

The heroic knight he marches on, as the clouds

rumble.

His iron will is bound to steel he's aiming for the

crown,

"Fear not men, all will be fine just pray you don't

look down!"

The howling jackals vie for prey as they move in

their packs,

The soldiers' skins looked drier than the dirt stuck

in the crags.

The ravens circled round and round to see who

would drop deap.

To my lord I shall bring him the king of Avalon's

head!

"Ready thy sword and shield, our quest is almost

an end,

This fair Avalon shall be ours so don't turn 'round

now men!"

The angels shed their tears of woe; they fell down as

the rain, 

The tears signified that they knew of the oncoming

pain.

"The citadels of Av'lon are ours to take I perceive.

He who takes these citadels, Avalon shall he receive!"

And so raged on the battle for the distant Avalon,

Many surmise that day to be filled with sadness

forlorn.

Blood and blood and nothing more, the battlefield

was ablaze

With crimson flames of blood from men now lying

in their graves

And what of the knight who led them to this ghastly

demise?

He spent the rest of his days with his sanity deprive"

Trapped forever in a shell of guilt, soul long forsaken,

He died in an infernal prison of his own making.

Still Avalon shines so bright, its citadels unconquered,

It's hollow voice calls out to men, its voice not

unanswered.

Sunil and the Valuable Coins

How can you make the world you live in -your home, your city, your nation - a cleaner and greener place ? Mother India is a and of vast cultural heritage with nonviolence and universal brotherhood.
