But Not To... Poem by Ponniah Ganeshan

You have eyes to see
and feast with things of beauties
But not of nasty, dirt and foul matters
You have ears to listen
the songs of sweetness
But not of bitterness
You have heart to help others
in need with sense of kindness
and compassion
But not of taking revenge
Nose to smell
the fragrance
But not to smell nausea
And mouth to talk and voice
For what is wrong and right.
‘cause, it is in a fraction of a second
The life ends
and you need every second to live alive.
