Our Birth Never Defines Us Poem by Bipasha Dutt

Our Birth Never Defines Us

Rating: 4.8


Though the lotus shares a bond
With the muddy and murky pond,

Yet lotus is holy and precious,
As our birth never defines us.

What we make out of ourselves is vital.
Only that aspect is important and crucial.

Well said. Birth does not and should not define us. The poem carries a profound message for those with obscurantist mentality. Thanks for this meaningful poem. I quote: What we make out of ourselves is vital. Only that aspect is important and crucial.
