Will Not Your Life Be So Sweet Like Sugarcane? Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Will Not Your Life Be So Sweet Like Sugarcane?



Console yourself after seeing the person
who does not have his two legs intact!

Don't get your eyes stirred up that
You don't have footwear for you to wear!

In this world, think how many people
are there inferior to you with no comfort!

Now will not your life be
so sweet like sugarcane?
