Will The Ripened Nux Vomica (Strychnos)be Suitable For Food! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Will The Ripened Nux Vomica (Strychnos)be Suitable For Food!



Even if it is not ripen well and fully,
the banana is good for food!

But, even if nux vomica (strychnos)is ripen,
will it be suitable for food, tell me!

Likewise, the elderly knowledgeable people
shall offer everything good even to anyone
who exhibits anger towards them!

But the scoundrels will not offer anything
even to the people who speaks softly
with kindness and affection!
