A Cow Dung Pit In My Village! Poem by Geetha Jayakumar
A Cow Dung Pit In My Village!
My village full of greenery
Very beautiful, independent houses
Surrounded by garden of vegetables
Nearby are the fields and opposite is the river
When I went for strolling,
I fell into the cow dung pit
Kept for some purpose.
After falling what could have happened?
I was fully immersed in cow dung and
Saw people making a mockery of me.
Well, I could have gotten angry too and
Would have picked up handfuls
And thrown at them.
I just made up my mind
To be cool and said to myself
Whatever I throw at others,
In fact, I may repent later
It will surely hit me twice.
In fact I may not even get time to say sorry.
I just felt why to waste the time on stupid things.
I just went to the nearby river and
Took a deep dive into it and
Washed all my thoughts covered with dirt and filth
Came out with purity in my thoughts!
