DRINK FROM DIVINE

Santosh Kumar Pokharel
(Composed on March 11, 2024)

Bias no hatred no
Anger, no whine
Cravings aversions no!
Pathos but sign.
Divine!

Possess compassion you
Possess benign
Possess for good that does
Good all align.
Enjoin!

When will the children and
Moms have been fine
Fed have been all those what
Do I opine.
Views mine!

As are they happy my
Pleasures combine
Heart will this rhymer fill
Eyes will his shine.
All fine.

May you have riches, may
Have you unbound
If no compassion, will
Never good sound.
You found?

May heaven shower us
Nectar this wine!
Onto this earth then will
Drink from Divine.
Incline!
