ENIGMA, WONDER, BEASTLINESS AND FURY (Free verse) by Gopakumar
Rotates the Globe
Revolves the Globe
Yet a plain ground it is
For all our plays and fights;
Indeed, enigma of nature â it is.
Rotates the Globe
Revolves the Globe
Yet the great bowl seldom spills
Though waves lashes and retreats;
Indeed, enigma of nature â it is.
Home on the Globe
Grave inside the Globe
Yet manâs rockets reach space
And return to enrich him;
Indeed, wonder of science â it is.
Home on the Globe
Grave inside the Globe
Yet man could split atoms
And steal the hidden energy;
Indeed, wonder of science â it is.
Home on the Globe
Grave inside the Globe
Yet manâs rockets hit cities
And rip apart bodies and minds;
Indeed, beastliness of man â it is.
Home on the Globe
Grave inside the Globe
Yet man could split humanity
And build walls all around;
Indeed, beastliness of man â it is.
Rotates the Globe
Revolves the Globe
Yet can shake when it wants
Turning temples to rubbles;
Indeed, fury of nature â it is.
Rotates the Globe
Revolves the Globe
Yet can splash its bowl when it wants
Swallowing all that comes in the way;
Indeed, fury of nature â it is.

To begin with this piece.... I don't fancy this sort of repetitive style much. However, I'll set that aside and say, that you've got an idea of what you want to write and it's presentation is fairly good.
