The True Saviour

While taking a stroll outside

Praising the deep, dark but starry night

Cool breeze, bright stars and the lovely moonlight

Like molten silver dripping from misty skies

When a painful cry caught my attention,

A tiny plant it was and to the ground it had fallen

Separated in one stroke, from its brethren

I decided to let it suffer not

But planted it in a new earthen pot

In a few days, it regained its sheen

From dull yellow to fresh green

Its joy could be easily seen

“You seem hale now I see,

Feel obliged forever and  be grateful to me”

Said I, swelling with pride and vanity.

With a mystic smile said he

“Though thankful I am to you but grateful only to Thee”

“But I saved your life, so why not just me? "

“Coz you were sent by Him only

The true savior of all beings is almighty

The good God lets no being suffer lonely”

Pat came his crisp reply with a meaning deep to imply

God helps all of us in the hour of need

For world is a rosary, every being but a bead

To His divine abode we all must proceed

With faces smiling and hearts without ego and greed.
