He was like a tiger tearing <br />Apart his enemies and <br />the Arrays of British, defeated <br />Many a king who took sides <br />Of them, speading his kingdom <br />And sending shivers up the spines <br />Of the Britsh who used all <br />Tricks in their dictionary <br />To make hom surrender. <br /> <br />He used missiles for <br />The first time in history <br />Of mankind and scared the <br />Wits out of his enemies, <br />But was defeated and killed <br />By the sheer treachery <br />Of his own men who made <br />Secret pacts with the british <br />And abstained from war, <br />Some even fighting against him. <br /> <br />His glory can never disappear, <br />from the pages of History <br />Of this country, who made <br />many sons of war and peace.<br /><br />RAVIKIRAN ARAKKAL<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tipu-sultan-tiger-of-mysore/
