Thinking The Four As Young, Known And Acquainted Leads To Distress! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Thinking The Four As Young, Known And Acquainted Leads To Distress!



If someone disgrace and reproach
...the following four,

the snake which resides inside a hole
...made of mud and sand,

the King, the fire and also the lion
...which resides in a cave

thinking that they are young,
...simple and easy to move,

known and acquainted,
...it leads to distress and agony!
