Thanks Monika
by Victor Om Shanti
Smooth words
From rough facades flow
Inviting mirth
In listener feeling low.
Lofty lines of intellect grow
From fertile minds
Of those born low.
Suffice it said
That what I know
Most valuable, most dear,
Comes not from them
Who crow
About their attractive beauty external,
(or so they think so),
But from them whose lives are eternal
Battles with -
- too much weight, that children stare,
- or ancient birthdate, that brings grey hair,
- a sexual slant others hate, because of fear,
all the assorted woes
of the shallow-minded.
