Things Of Value Poem by Ruta Mohapatra
Things Of Value
One can give and give
And give all in vain
The heart often beats
To some other strain
That is why it happens
Sometimes along the way
A rich man's daughter elopes
With a poor man's boy
A diamond can't speak
Silk, satin can't hug
The warmth of a heart
Beats a thick soft rug
So a simple hard life
Can often ensnare
Those born into riches
Missing love and care
An insightful love poem well conceived and nicely brought forth in persuasive expressions with conviction. A poignant rendition set aside for honest reflection. Thanks for sharing, Ruta.
