Guards are there in front of the palaces, <br />In Non violent temples at the entrance, <br />Thigh of the horses are fixed with the claws, <br />The perfect pedicure of polished nails glow, <br />The thorax and face of the human, <br />And a few have the breasts and the rest plain, <br />The wings are at the back steady to shoot, <br />The beak replaces the lips ready to poke, <br />The ears of the antlers that can hear, <br />To secure the kings and the Gods from the evils, <br />Something that can run fast as the horse, <br />Hold the preys as the eagles of the Lords, <br />Something that can fly as the birds, <br />And hear the noise from the distance in the dark, <br />Of all the additional features in the guards, <br />Human had retained their brain and the beauty, <br />At the threshold of ancient temples of, <br />A mystical land that is called as the mother land.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-guards-of-the-gods-and-the-people/
