MAN


DUTY

DUTY
[Dr. Mahendra Bhatnagar]




To love
This life, this world
Is what a man must do!

To love
People,
Mute animals, birds, sea-creatures,
The forest creepers,
The trees,
Is what a man must do!

To love
The buds and the blooms,
The myriad hued
Butterflies
Is what a man must do!

To love
The miracle-studded,
And wonderously
Incoherent
Dreams;

To love
The dainty fairies
Floating through the sweetest
Fancies
Is what a man must do!
