Questions... Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Questions we ask
are in search of answers, you know!

If the answers arrive for questions,
you must have patience to listen!

We can raise questions again
as a reply to question, you know!

Isn't the questions arise
to explain what is going on?

If the questions were not asked,
Will the education gets fulfilled?

It is only because 'People used to say
questions are better than learning'!

Questions that search answers are like
the substances offered in sacrificial pyre!

The piece of cloth on the shoulder
can become a beautiful head-dress!

The question which doesn't start
to create problem is good!

The rain only relieves the drought
The oncoming reply should be like that!

If the growth is well formed in girth,
Will the helping stick become a child?

Revolution as a newer stone,
One new good deed is wanted!

Is it the life to live
by seeing the drought? Question
is dwindled, there ends the life!

To live, question alias rolling
and raising thunder is not enough!
The showering rain-like reply is the need!

I don't want the scaring question!
I am finishing by saying 'THANKS'!
