NOTHING I GOT

I get tired of handling people

Stating facts, giving reasons

How much time I wasted with this lot

Sincerely from them, nothing I got

My animal friends never question

Nor do they love me with a hidden intention

To them a few hours of gap is a big punishment

And when I arrive , seems their love has entered

They leap , jump and dance around me

Their eyes smiling, yes smilingly they greet

But the so called blood relations

Yes, door they open, but with questions

As if I have murdered someone and come

And some criminal offence will be the outcome

They don’t say much , but still say a lot

Sincerely from them, nothing I got

I am not much of a speaker

Yes but I always was a seeker

Would observe everything around

Keep within learnt lessons well bound

One thing I know that love runs this world

Love is greater than relations of blood

I soak love as sponge does water

When fully soaked, I will see my creator.

If I have understood what love is

Why do I stick to blood relations, such this

Is this not madness and moving on two boats

Or still a weakling am I and with emotions float
