O foolish mind! By Manivannan S. i do not know to introduce this amazing blogger, infact he doesnt need any introduction. when his pen make poems, there is devotion, when its text the is the true words and emotions.
When everything is bestowed unto you...
Where did you learn, O foolish mind, to say I and mine?
When moon, sky, stars and sun belong to you...
Where did you learn, O foolish mind, to build homes?
When mountains, rivers, trees and flowers welcome you...
Where did you learn, O foolish mind, to live within locked doors?
When earth, water, air and space are for free...
Where did you learn, O foolish mind, to trade?
When you can take nothing with you...
Where did you learn, O foolish mind, to accumulate?
When happiness and joy are your very nature...
Where did you learn, O foolish mind, to lead a life of misery?
