Dictionary

Dictionary, vocabulary and literacy…
Dictionary
Dictionary is the noble bible,
For anyone and everyone, young or old.
Vocabulary is the storage tank of dictionary.
Fathered by dictionary, mothered by vocabulary,
Wonderful child christened ‘literacy’ is born.
This wonder kid spreads its wings across the world.
With the encouragement and support of inclination and dedication,
Author, critic, journalist, writer,
Any member of this erudite fraternity,
No matter who the person is.
How knowledgeable the individual is.
The pen of these educated elites,
Gets mightier than sword,
Only if, loaded with vocabulary.
Power, versatility and flow of this weapon is unparalleled,
By any modern gun or ancient sword.
Strength of vocabulary rests on dictionary.
Dictionary is a divine shrine,
Embellished with twenty six magical gems,
‘Alphabets’.
