No time to think

a poem by Venkatesan P

Oh, what is this life so full of strife
That I’ve no time to think of the Divine
God’s creation abounds with many a splendour
The sun and moon and the star spangled sky
The beautiful fauna and flora
The verdure vesture of the earth
The lovely lakes and rivers that flow
But I’ve no mind and blind
To witness the beauty of God’s handiwork
Being always mired in life’s petty misery.
