Virtuous Life And Doing Charity Is The Prime Priority! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Virtuous Life And Doing Charity Is The Prime Priority!

Rating: 5.0


O’ my low minded fleshy heart!
Thinking that we will make more wealth,
we will try hard with desire by forgetting to do virtues;
And also we think that we will not die so soon;

Even though you try and live as you like it
by withstanding steadily in your business without
any rest and intermission, your days have gone!
Say what you are going to do for next birth to Heaven?

Joyful life with wealth is not the first priority!
Maintaing a virtuous life and doing charity
is the prime priority!

Thanks for your encouraging comments. I think and prefer the message has to said correctly than the rhymes. Still I am trying to bring out poetically. Most of the imiyavai naaRpathu and Inaa naarpathu come with acrostic form of poems.
