# About Humility

Rating: 3.0


humility is
not there in calling yourself
an ordinary

in humility
we cross over an ocean
just casually

true humility
is not a mask to be worn
eyes reflects the truth

false humility
a pretense to be humble
order of the day

it is a true wealth
in which you transcend yourself
humility loves

it is a gesture
in which you show your true self
humility invokes

HUMILITY IS
THE GREATEST POEM OF MAN
TAGORE SAID IN ONE
