So why does the silk worm spin
Yarns of purity in lustrous strands?
The sole purpose of its existence-
Oozing itself out,
Not for itself, but Never!
Only to serve a higher purpose
At the cost of its own self.
The blade of grass-
That sustains the food chain.
The Ants, zealous, uncomplaining
Disciplined, unquestioning;
Nature and the Lord's many creations,
Except, perhaps, man.
Look around, dear Child:
Do they ask,
Why me?

I would like to translate this poem
No never… for they love the Creator more than we humans do! We selfish humans live for ourselves only. An excellent composition with excellent content in it… why not a ten?
