You Have A Gift Of Nature
AT SCHOOL:
"Out of my sight
You lazy fool!
You have no brain!
You are no sportsman!
You have no skill,
No art, no dexterity!
Out of my sight, you good-for-nothing!"
He left them and in that lonely corner
Cried away his sorrows.
AT WORKPLACE:
"Man, who employed you
In this office?
You have no skill, no competence
No talent, no best routine.
You are a good-for-nothing!"
He left work that day brooding,
Moody and sober;
"Oh, what a miserable life!"
AT PLAY:
"Any game you cannot play!
Man, what are doing on this earth?
Go and hang yourself
And leave this planet
For better people!
This world has already rejected you!
...No, my friend!
Don't mind them!
You have a talent
You have a skill
You have a great
Gift of God.
You are superstar!
Go and explore your talent.
Society needs you.
