Can you trust?

           

  Trust

Wild wind blew harder

Knowing no direction,

Following no milestones,

Taking its own course;

Roaring in the valleys,

Rafting over the seas,

Soaring in the mountains,

Sweeping the wide plains,

Rustling with the leaves

Ringing with the streams,

Singing through the harps

playing with the sands,

I saw all the nature in unison

In harmony following the ONE.

There is a wild world

Running like the mad herd,

Confused in hue and cry,

Fleeing away far and wide,

Smiling in others’ woes,

Friends faking as foes

Crying over the loss,

Making high over the fuss,

Crying with crocodile tears,

Selling neighbour’s leftovers,

Clinging to the dead remains

Over using the smart brains,

Warming oneself over other's pyre

Or caressing with a fake smile.

HE saw them running wildly

In all directions blindly

HE called them and said,

“Why do you run away?

Where will you go?

Don’t you believe in me?

Do you have better option?

Come to me; I will protect you

You are my children; I, your father

Have faith in your worship.”

Man Said, “Everything you say is alright,

But I can’t take any chance.”

And ran in bewilderment

                                                             HE stood in amazement.
