Keep The Red Ball And Throw The White Ball Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul

Keep The Red Ball And Throw The White Ball

Rating: 5.0


My dear lovely children!
Do you want to play ball?
If it is so then
Come to me with friends and call.

There are two balls with me
One is red and round,
Second is white in colour
In nature it is sound.

By white ball we suppose
Truth, nonviolence and charity,
Whiteness in thinking doing
We must have sympathy and purity.

By red ball we do mean
The opposite of good qualities,
Here we can't find co-operation
And we can’t find moralities.

If you throw the red ball
To me and if I back it,
You will get the same ball
In same manner I may treat.

But once I hold the red ball
And throw the white ball,
You must back me white ball
Let's go to mall.

Dear children do you know
What did Jesus Christ say?
'Do to other as you wish them to
Do to you' it is sunshine make hay.
