A Bovine Life! Poem by Ramesh T A

Four cows come daily before my house;
They take leaves and left over foods well
Near the junk box and bask on the road side.
Such cows of the Temple are loved by all!

These bovine creatures are harmless to all;
They are trouble-less to anyone unlike dogs;
They lie on the road side like wise sages
Musing over the Lord for attaining moksha!

There are men like bovine creatures too here
Basking on mounted resting place before house
After taking sumptuous meal chewing betel leaves
For hours together as that is their pastime in life!

Basking in Nature musing on divine spirit everywhere
One can attain bliss eternal better than heaven here!
But what to say about the basking bovine creatures
Among men wasting whole life without any progress!
