Whom he invites in his lively sojourn.

images (3)HE WHO LOVED GODS

He loves mankind

And the entire universe

Yet while happy people

Get together, fume and fret,

He steals away to his forlorn trek.

 

He is never alone.

In fact, he is

In the cherished company 

Of his loved ones

Whom he invites in his lively sojourn.

 

I have seen him talking

To birds

And loving the trees

He loves squirrels at play

And dogs which meet him on the way

 

When winds come crooning

He gets in close proximity

To the earth from where

He listens to shrill

And still music of life.

 

How birds and insects are born

And finished as food

No one doth pine

No one complains

Against this system divine

 

We make so much of this life

Which only adds to the strife

We who die an unexplained death

Mauled and molested

Are silenced eternally unquenched.
