Man!

What a brilliant creature is he when you look at him from all angles!
He is the reflection of his creator. God his maker
the cleverest of all living things roaming the surface of mother earth
very generous is he to those he loved most and selfish to those he doesn’t

Unlike other living things, man’s behaviour is very unpredictable.
He is happy for seconds and in minutes sad. Why?
Man is advanced in all aspects.
With his superb brain
he can make and destroy his own world in minutes

He hates correction and hardly admits mistakes
unless force to do so
Man is master of himself and a king of his little
Kingdom. His home
he says and does whatever he chooses to.

He is loved and honoured, feared and dislike
Because of what he is (Man)
Ambitious is he.
If allowed, he would want to rule this world alone
So he can dominate his follow man to his ability.

He is in an endless pursuit of fame, materialism, riches and power
but never would he satisfy his quest
with all his ability and might, man got his limit
he is not as might as the lion, natural elements, sickness, emotions and death
he has failed to even stop his world from rapidly deteriorating around him
and yet, his is what he claims to be
Man!!!

He promotes the ideas of me and mine leaving little options for his follow man
he throws away the best opportunities that comes his way
only to blame others around him
he takes pride in his achievements
and very good in destroying…, but very poor in making.
He enjoys respect and praise but loved criticizing.

When in need…, he humbles himself as a child.
Once again learning obedience
proud and arrogant is he thereafter
In a tinkle of an eye, man passes away in death
he is forever gone and forgotten.

“Man returns back to the ground from which he was taken”
What a big blow!!!

He is like a hiss of the wind. Here now and in a second gone
Oh! How nothing is he but like a piece of biscuit
Man is noting more than the beauty of the world
An embodiment of dust!
