Selflessness Verses Selfishness! Poem by Ramesh T A

Flowers and fruits of various shapes and sizes are
In various colours all over the world serving best
To the people and other living beings forever sans
Expecting any reward or award or anything in return!

This is the quality of all beautiful and best things
Of Nature in the world since time immemorial to all
Because love never expects nothing in return but only
Love to be shown so to all in reciprocation forever!

Selfishness comes into play, when one is in need or
Want of something not available with one but others
Easily have in their possession making them special,
Great and unique among ordinary people around them!

Ego born of selfishness is always jealous of selfless
Love having greatest support and help from all forever!
