Shovel Dirt Shovel Sin Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul

Shovel Dirt Shovel Sin

Rating: 4.2


Like coal is shovelled in mines,
Like dirt is shovelled in street,
Like sand is shovelled in shore,
You shovel sins as much you can.

Shovelling is necessary you feel,
Without this dirt remains in mind,
Sins spoil status of soul further,
Clumsy life needs shovelling.

Gaining faith is wise to practice,
Trust strengthens mind's degree,
Writing good things you proceed,
Your imagination will be pure.

Shovelling dirt, shovelling sins,
You purify to carry on virtues,
Then you will walk like a king,
Ruling self-esteem will be secured.

Accumulation of dirt has to be cleared from wherever it is possible, be it a street, a public place or a town or city! We see the sign.... " Keep the City Clean" . This cleansing is equally needed when dross or dirt accumulates in the mind. To enjoy happiness and better health, mind has to be kept clean. A meaningful poem!

Yes, it is so true, growing up we accumulate so much dross in mind that we need to shovel it away. It is more important in life to unlearn all wrong thins picked up than learning. It is like refreshing our computers or using the 'Clean up' software. So well said dear poet.

Dirt should be removed. Sin should also be removed. Leaf carries letter. Calmness is inside own mind. This we should feel. Soul is pure. Nature impacts on soul. This is a great poem and you are a nice poet.
