That We Should Heed Poem by Indira Renganathan

That We Should Heed

Rating: 5.0


Waves are hollering
Incessantly
Of what sorrow
We don't know
But people are enjoying
The sea from the shore

Sky is dim and dull
Clouds are pregnant
With thundering throe
Earth doesn't know the pain of
The clouds but waiting
To enjoy the rain

A mood of finishing fast
That man's felling the tree
Of what sorrow the tree's shivering
We know clear like a crystal
Can we be simply watching...
That we should heed and apprehend

Yes ma'am we know not on whose grief we find relief and on whose failure we take pleasure. Right movement on right time is gem piece.

If we don't have that feeling of empathy, .we could never feel the sorrow and pain of others.

We hardly realise and behave with others not knowing what difficulty he is going through. A very nice poem indeed.
