Red Chilli Pride

Red Chilli Pride

The dreams of humans, their pride held high  
Politics, contracts, beliefs all pass them by  
Tomorrow may bring joy, a lonely heart’s divide  
Even sleep itself is a small death inside  

Only one decides it all — the Divine above  
Man thinks he is king, holding power and love  
Yet only He sets the path, unseen, untold  
Red chilli glows in fire, bright and bold  

Among the flowers she laughs, knowing her worth  
Grace, strength, and flavor — all in her girth  
Among other chillies, she stands ahead  
“I am the hottest, the only queen,” she said  

Her unique spice changes nothing, stays the same  
In her memory — flavor, beauty, pride aflame  
All around, humans see nature as trivial, slight  
Yet only God perceives each step, each light  

The chilli’s heat, man’s trials, life’s test unfurled  
All follow the same path — creation, state, end of world  
Between sky and earth, only one moves free  
Life, death, pride, love — flowing endlessly  

The flower’s sweetness, the red chilli, human dreams too  
God’s design woven in, blending into view  
They join into one poem, dancing, singing along  
Through the poet’s pen, the verses carry strong
