My Officer with a Battered Face

My officer with a battered face,

And officer with a patriotic grace.

Fallen into the enemy base,

Ejecting after winning the race. 

They trapped him on their terrain bays,

Pounded on him in most inhuman ways,

Some sane men in uniform rescued and lays;  

Unaware of his identity and arrays.

With dignity, poise and elegance highest, 

A fighter pilot of the Indian Air Force, greatest;

Battered, wounded, but a self-righteous face, brightest;

Unbelievable for Jihadists to understand the race, bravest.

If only the slaughterers could understand tranquillity,

Appreciate an atom of the same serenity,

And grasp that their terror love noise and divisibility;

It Is an absurd, horrible blare and culpability.

My officer with a battered face but bright eye;

Stood there unyielding and high,

Beamed in the presence of his subjugators, pass by;

And taught us the greatest example of a patriotic guy.

That valour is not purchased from Amazon or online,

Cannot be discussed or understood on Prime Time.

It is not the type of secularism or tolerance wine;

For lounger aggravators,  it is not the rhyme.

My officer with a battered face, sturdy nerve;

Grateful for your commitment and verve,

Your rank and gallantry is an example tough,

It is a rare sight, rare souls deserve.

For those whose wrath takes gun today, 

They have a full understanding of what fate is on way, 

To parachute lands into foe terrain, eager to slay;

Deadly hit by the foe in an air combat fray.   

My officer with a battered face, tall;

You have given a message to us all,

You can fly an aircraft at high alacrity and call,

And hit the target, never to fail and fall.

Maintained your exuberance and energy in an era, adverse;

Of doubt, death, sacrifice and conscience fierce;

Kept your face high and took the brew, pierce;

Nation salutes your velour and sacrifice.

My officer with a battered face but savoury;

You have given a meaning to life and bravery,

We sleep soundly and you are guarding frontiers, gallantly;

Kindle fire and boil fresh brew blithely.
