Trembling Thirst Poem by Mantu Mahakul

Trembling Thirst

Rating: 4.5


While a thirsty camel does not get water,
Still manages more for many days better.
Sweeter you feel the thirst after feeling,
Deer in desert in mirage runs in reeling.

Hot sand that drinks here who does link?
Short thirst comes when fishes in pond think.
Many feel thirsty for matters and money,
Some do drink salt sugar, water and honey?

Why does thirst come all do not understand,
Thirst drinks their hopes in clumsy road stand.
A thirsty man searches water up to far place,
Like rockets go far planets and search in space.

Wise people towards knowledge divert thirst,
They culture and adopt values and purity fast.
Godly wisdom becomes their water to drink,
In thirst to get God in meditation they do link.

Drop by drop they do drink nectar of nature,
Crop they do cultivate of virtue for far future.
God becomes their aim, learning and vision,
Oh dear people this thirst is of God's season.

"Although a thirsty camel does not get water, still manages many days more in better way. After feeling the thirst exactly you feel this sweeter. However a deer in desert runs in reeling behind mirage due to thirst. Who does link we do not know. But here deer drinks hot sand. When fishes in pond think at that time short thirst comes. For matters and money many feel thirsty and run behind. Some drink salty or sugar water and some drink too honey due to thirst. All most all people do not understand that why does thirst come.

Wise people towards knowledge divert thirst, They culture and adopt values and purity fast. Godly wisdom becomes their water to drink, In thirst to get God in meditation they do link. Indeed, The prudence yearn for divine knowlege, for it is through that, they gain control over their human lives. They seek and practice moral values that bring peace and harmony to humanity. This is a beautiful with good rhymes... well written!
