Charlatans And Intellecutal! Poem by Ramesh T A

Can one bend at fifty after not bending at five?
What is the use of praying to Sun after being blind?
Too late realization in life will not help for redemption!

He is the role model for all due to his goodness, gentleness
And truthfulness in thoughts, words and deeds sans fail!
Being knowledgeable whatever he does is novel and great!

Being intellectually inclined he utters words full of wisdom
And whatever he has said has come true whether it is life or
Work or politics that are occupying the concern of everyone!

Jealous hearted and envious guys always pursued him behind
Doubting his valour, veracity and victory in all his pursuits
Whether they are charlatans or politicians or ruffians on the road!

Albeit unsuitable, imitating him externally they tried to be like
Him earning the name of charlatans becoming fools in all quarters!
