Sonnet: On Conversions On Earth Poem by Dr John Celes

Each man seeks better things in his lifetime!
So is a search for God, a thing most prime;
It is the basic freedom of all men,
To freely practise their choice religion.

When food, shelter, clothing, wisdom are got,
Man seeks a perfect environmental slot;
And when his ambitions have been attained,
Man wants to really realize God.

With poverty wiped and a literate mind,
Tranquility in Nature, man will find;
He discards those religions, weak/ lifeless,
And takes up one more meaningful/ selfless!

Thus, conversion is a predestined one,
And that of souls is by God’s mercy ‘lone!
