Culture

By Kasheeka Gupta

The Mosaic of the Modern World 

As our Culture weaves the Tapestries 

the diversity as the paint brush 

unifying both the worlds. 

The modern aged broth 

the smell of culture strong 

the magic of the spices diverse 

holding it together from centuries long  

The bright blurs of modern life 

the warm glow of ancestral cultures 

the range of festive lights 

softening even the coldest structures 

Dēor as modern days 

Treow as culture 

one can’t live without the other 

creating the Weorold together 

The singing of the modern era 

all with the cultural tunes 

the distinct lyrics of life 

blending melodies and fortunes 

The excavated modern times 

the rootings of cultures 

deciphering the past that looms 

from those precious gathered runes 

And all those small priceless things 

only show what’s the truth 

that these modernized ways 

are made for the cultures to stay 

That the roots of the beginnings 

is what makes you grow 

no matter how good the changes seem 

the roots are not to throw 

The longer beams of present, work 

and the shorter olds seem a waste 

but change the view and see ahead 

working together, a ladder is made.
