A class mate of mine is extremely rich. <br />One of my cousins has grown powerful. <br />A village mate is a judge in the High Court. <br />None of them is in my contact list. <br /> <br />I’m humble; they’re big. Let them be as they are. <br />Standing by them, why must I show myself small <br />Though by that to others I shall be big? <br />This is what’s the pride that apes humility. <br />20.05.2010<br /><br />Rm.Shanmugam Chettiar.<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/pride-aping-humility/
