What We Learnt Is Handful! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Renders the air as music; Flute reveals the handful
what we learnt though! the air is honey as what we
learnt is handful! Is it all what we learnt is only upto
our hands? Yes; what we learnt is only upto our hands! 1

A kind of grass sings when it changes into flute;
The shining gold might become an ornament;
The stone might transform into a sculpture;
What we learnt reveals the usage limits of hands! 2

The mud might scoop water while made into a pot;
The same mud might resonant as a musical pot;
The picture that attracts eyes might smile;
What we learnt denotes the efficiency of hands! 3

It is the language of those who see, but not to hear;
The signals learnt through the way of hands movements;
While there are no eyes to see, what is learnt by touch
Is upto the language (Braille) to the best of their hands! 4

Is the waist of a spinster girl a creeper? - is it
the flag hoisted by the God of love? - the waist
of the spinster girl is in the cluch of my hand; - the delight
that is learnt is up to the level of the holding hand! 5

The level of knowledge expands with the help of books;
The wisdom is known by the level what one speaks;
The steps are measured with the feet in legs;
What we learnt is upto the handful; of course the "Hope'! 6

The education that is learnt is handful;
The pulse beat in the wrist reveals the disease;
O' Sir! What we learnt is only handful; that
you can see in the hand mobile touch screen! 7
