Educated

Educated, We all bear on our souls, Understanding, About this world's ephemeral nature And work hence, Towards making of our stay upon her soils, One worthy of being remembered! Educated, We all ride upon the rivers of humility, Well aware that arrogance is merely A weapon of the devil And that adorned with its wings, We shall end up at the beginning of it all, While the end keeps twinkling its own Sign, desperately wanting us to notice it! Educated, We see the world as needing us more Than we needing it And we thereby we become selfless Happily putting in our hands into kneading dough So as to give to the world A smile upon its face And since charity begins at home, Then, we understand that our old and worn Parents are not there merely to fill up our pockets Or our mouths But since their duties towards us have been completed, Time rings its bell for us, to signal us that we are To return to them their favors! Educated Why, Educated, We sprinkle magic everywhere we set our feet And watch lilies and roses sprout As abundantly as would life itself Upon a world which shall never belong to any of us! 12.30.2021
