A Day When The Food Eaten All Alone Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

A Day When The Food Eaten All Alone



A day
when the food eaten all alone
in the absence of the guests,

A night spent
without accompanying and enjoying
the beautifully dressed and well adorned wife,

The entire day passed
without offering what is needed
to the needy and poor;

The above three are considered
as the disease to the learned
and knowledgeable people.
