Many A Mystery In The Universe Poem by Sayeed Abubakar

When I stand beside an elephant,
I realize my smallness;
When under a banyan tree,
I realize my smallness;
When beside a mountain,
My smallness ails me.

Having stood on the shore of an ocean,
I cannot find out myself;
Having stared at the blue sky,
I lose myself into eternity.

Seeing my helplessness,
My soul comes out
And says,
'Largeness does not prove superiority
And smallness inferiority.
Many a mystery is there in the universe.
Eyes cannot show the whole truth.'
