1. ONLY THOSE – PART 2
Only those who are perpetually blind; having their lives camouflaged in gruesome
darkness,
Can wholesomely realize the value of having pellucid eyes; the gift of
mesmerizing sight.
Only those who are maimed; having their feet encapsulated in stirrups of solid steel,
Can perceive the beauty of strong legs; the ensemble of delectably tiny toes treading
on fresh chunks of earth.
Only those who are stone deaf; being oblivious to presence of the minutest of noise,
Can cognize the importance of drifting voices; the blissful frequency of melodious
sound.
Only those who are dumb; finding it virtually impossible to give substance to words,
Can conceive the crispness of conversation; the splendor of clear speech.
Only those who are embodied with disdainful boils; tyrannizing disease rendering
them as hapless lepers,
Can envisage the grandeur of immaculate skin; the resplendent complexion sparkling
profoundly under the sun.
Only those shivering in bizarre cold on the snow clad slopes; infinite strands of hair
projecting in tandem on their skins,
Can comprehend the heat generated by crackling fires; the warmth imparted in the
interiors of dwellings.
Only those who are bald; without the most minuscule trace of follicles on their
barren scalps,
Can appreciate thick curls of entwined hair; the way they sometimes cascaded down
in languid harmony.
Only those who are orphaned; being brutally kicked by the uncouth society at all
quarters,
Can apprehend the compassion emanating from the mother’s lap; her unblemished
palms putting the exhausted soul to immortal sleep.
Only those who are in intense affliction; being circumvented with inexplicable misery
and pain,
Can grasp the meaning of existing in conjunction with nature; the invincibly
appearing smile.
2. And only those who are deprived of sharing; left unattended without the slightest
essence of care,
Can overwhelmingly blend with the spirit of true love; understand in entirety what it
takes to fulfill it; lead life perennially with the same.
