It Is Advised To Be Far Away From The Eyes Of The Wretched People! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

It Is Advised To Be Far Away From The Eyes Of The Wretched People!



One should keep himself five arms away
..from the animals with horns!

One must keep himself ten arms away
..from the horse so that it will not kick!

From the wild elephant, one should need to
..keep himself thousand arms distance away!

But, it is advised to be the good virtue to keep
..far and far away to an invisible distance from the eyes
of the hard core horrible and wretched people!
