What use is the rosary?
What use is the sword?
If heart doesn’t enshrine
The Name of the Lord.
Knockings of conscience
You never heard;
Wealth, woman and wine
Your vision blurred.
Let compassion be the beads
And contentment its thread;
Let the Truth be the shield
And fearlessness spread.
Embrace the life with open arms,
Let love be the sword;
Its mighty tsunami waves
Will win to you the whole world.
So, don’t desecrate His temple,
Let your heart enshrine His Word.

'So, don’t desecrate His temple, Let your heart enshrine His Word.' Nice poem with spiritual flavor.
Another thought-provoking poem. I particularly like the rhythm and imagery of stanza 3.

Sharmaji, you sound very much like Kabir. Same depth and same style. Very good poem. Memorable.
