The Exemplar Poem by NAYYAR SHABBIR AHMAD

The Exemplar



Though he had suffered much
at the hands of his opponents
upon his release
Nelson Mandela
displayed a distinct lack of bitterness
and, a refusal to take revenge


Very rightly
soon
his Leadership qualities
his generosity of Spirit
his compassion
his selflessness
and his very forgiving ways
became his trait

If more of us followed his example
wouldn't this World be a far better place?
