Have you seen the light of hope in the eyes of the blind?
Have you seen the smile of contentment upon the lips of poverty?
Have you felt the tenderness of benevolence
In the palm of the affluent?
Have you felt the glow of sacrifice in the heart afire with love?
Have you known the trace of strength in the footprints of life's storms?
Have you known the halo of calm around the face of death?
Then only have you seen and felt and known
True beauty in a human being.
Have you known the halo of calm around the face of death? How can anybody write something like this without dying? Amazing Kusum Gokarn...
