Little Whims We Always Care… Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Little Whims We Always Care…



Little whims we always care,
We hold on to our hearts;
But many things we know brittle,
We let them slip out of hands!

Lot of kinks we should let go
We tell ourselves to hold
What’s kicking inside? Ego;
End up beaten down, ten fold!

Penny wise and Pound foolish - you propound so well, Ego a small word but causes even catastrophes in life. A wise poem to be heeded well in life as well. Short and crisp you serve Truth well.Angel

A one go read, for its smoothness, with sour ego, we are so bound to it.10
