Legacy

Prasanta Panda
Strong legacy is building
Past legacy is renewing
Guru Vyasadev is compiling
Different pedigree is running.

Iconoclasts are carbon-dating
Narcissists are cocooning
Youths are Vanguarding
Enlightened India is in making.

Carvings, cravings and yearnings
Optical illusions happening
Sand art is exhibiting
People are rejoicing.

Talent is glorifying
Braindrain is ending
Make in India is trend-setting
Made in India is sky-rocketing.

Changes are epochmaking
Proven ways are resolving
Remarkable results are happening
Unprecedented breakthroughs are unleashing.

Guru Sandipani is moulding
Offsprings are retrieving
Great resolve and bonding are shouldering
Zigsaw puzzles are solving.
