TRUTH!

TRUTH!

A Poem by Nayan
"

What is Truth to a person? Does it vary for someone else? And if so, does one person accept another's ? If not, what should one with a different truth do?

"


Keep your Truth to yourself -
My Friend!
People only accept their own!

Pray -
That your Truth is His’!
As His’ is the only ray -
Else all is clay!

Not what you want -
Is what you can hold!
Not what they don’t think -
Is what they shouldn’t do!

Blessed believe you are -
You can think that their mind cannot!
Cursed conceive you are -
You want do that you reach cannot!

Blessed believe they are -
They have the powers that they can do!
Cursed conceive they are -
They never think that they should do!




Let them do -
What you can conceive!
And Let you think -
What they should do!

No, do not Pray -
That your Truth is His’!
But Pray -
That His’ Truth becomes theirs’!

Author's Note

Nayan
I conceived the idea of this poem after hearing the words of a differently-abled person who could not walk! -- "Sir, I cannot walk, but I have designed a very low-cost wheelchair that people like me can use. A few poor people like me are using it too! But I often think why God did give me such thinking, though not the resource or powers to achieve it for many? But people with powers and resource - Why such thought never comes in their minds?"

I salute that person with this offering!

Nayan,

Please allow me to openly share that I am not into Organized-Religion of any kind or flavor. I am a Deist who does attest the necessitated existence of some sort of a Creator who is not near as personal as we would like to believe .. All that shmoo said, I respect the beliefs of others as a Fan of Humanity. I truly enjoyed this piece of your heart sincerely set to pen of page ... I say this to you and others: Stay true to your own beliefs and faith, as I shall do to my lack of such things. Speak your heart and your mind. And, stand your ground, and never back down ... Nice to meet you here on the Cafe ...

This was very interesting.
My favorite part of the poem was:

"Blessed believe they are -
They have the powers that they can do!
Cursed conceive they are -
They never think that they should do!"

Truth and Lie are relative - this I agree with you :). But what I do not agree is that Truth is relevant only to the victor!
