What Must Change? Poem by Nabakishore Dash
What Must Change?
Food, air and water are
basic needs for physical
body.
Love, care and affection
are for mind, not any attire
gaudy.
Whatever one does by
outer body like limbs, tongue
mouth and snout.
The instructions emanate
from the inner, no confusion
and doubt.
The inner must change
for sucessful life and
good society.
The external would follow it
to ensure civilisation
with propriety.
A wonderfully written piece with fabulous insight! Thank you for sharing!
