Poems
Hospitality
by T.A. Ramesh

The hard looking men are not hard in heart
And the soft looking men do not necessarily be soft too;
That is the irony of creation in Nature!
The tough looking tall trees are not really tough;
They give shade to all and shelter to many birds;
They give sweet fruits to eat to everyone whoever they are.
The trees give birth to thousands of beautiful flowers
That spread sweet fragrance in all directions
Reminding about the presence of them to all; why?
They invite so all with open branches to enjoy their hospitality!
Even the trees fall after years of service are still useful for man;
They become the raw materials for the manufacture of household articles;
Or they are useful as fuel or energy for burning purposes in the house or factory.
That is the nature of the hard looking hospitable beings of Nature in the world!
