Giving And Receiving Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Giving And Receiving



Is giving good or receiving?
Is giver noble or receiver?

In giving, ego gets a boost
And sets to lead to arrogance.
In receiving, ego gets a bead
And bleeds to humiliation.

Feeling insecure, one gives.
Being insecure, one gets.

In giving, possessiveness dilutes.
In receiving, greediness consolidates.

Willingness to give to someone
Who is utter need to get
Is the wise giving and receiving.

Giving is good; receiver is holy.
