Who is 'HE' ??? (POEM : 11.03.2006)

WHO IS HE ???

 

Many-a-times in this moribund life,

I sit down and have something to wonder.

Isn’t there somebody behind this world,

Who runs us all and makes me ponder.

 

The moment I feel alone, he’s there !

Who is he ? I don’t know.

If I’m fallen, he lifts me up.

How does he do that ? I don’t know.

 

How good is he, ensures for sure, that

You’re back on your feet with just a sigh !

How bad am I, the very next minute,

Leave the ground and try flying high.

 

No doubt, he is back again,

Ready to make me come down. Above all,

Hats-off to him, I need not suffer a strain,

It’s just a glide down and not a big fall !

How does he do all that ? I don’t know.     

 

I find him here, there, everywhere,

In you, in me, in everybody.

When I study, he’s the teacher.

When at home, he’s the parent and sister.

But, what if I’m alone and solitary,

Bravo! He’s the mentor and preacher.

 

For the capitalists, he’s dollar and rupiah,

For the poor and needy, he’s the Messiah !

I wish I were the poorest of all,

I could then proudly say, that for me,

His blessings are wherewithal !!!

Those who are still in the dark,

Think he’s simply frail and fraud.

But those who are in the bright light,

Feel he’s the one and only, the GOD !!!

 

If you’re dormant, he’s the Generator,

If you’re working, he’s the Operator,

If you’re planning to go via the Wrong Way,

Fear him, he can even be the Destroyer.

 

If you’re the body, he’s the spirit,

If you’re the winner, he’s the energy.

If success is the effect, he is the cause.

 

What if failure is the effect ???

Don’t worry ! He is the cause.

And do thank him for that,

Hey man, he is painstakingly,

Laying down the stepping stones,

For your ‘success’ !!!
