Who Is The Great? Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Who Is The Great?



A colorless ray HE made…
And made colors all
From ultra violet to infra red
Flowers reflect them all

A sperm and ovum HE made
Specimens numerous now parade!

Blacks and Whites
Blondes and Redheads
Brunettes and Black-heads
The bald blue-eyed
Thick and thin-haired
Thick-headed and wise:
HE reflects in them all…

HE made them believe
Believe in Him in different calls!

Now tell me, who is the Greatest of all?
You me or anybody else here,
Or these deemed greats,
Or HE who made these all?

yes, I agree. And most certainly agree with what Alf have said below.What color is God's skin? is it black, brown, yellow, white? WE'RE THE SAME in the good Lord's sight.

Sir, You have well estiblished through this poem the greatness of God. He, Who made all colors, yet embedded them all in one color, 'White'; He Who made seven 'swaras', yet embedded them in one Ohm..........He is the Greatest of all. A great poem this is Sir.
