Seed first or tree first, <br />Egg first or hen first, <br />Man first or woman first, <br />Who can tell what came first? <br /> <br />What's unseen does exist, <br />What's seen doesn't exist. <br />The unseen air does exist, <br />The mirage doesn't exist. <br /> <br />A lighted candle stick, <br />Makes the fire visible <br />And the sound invisible, <br />To the ears it's audible. <br /> <br />A sheet paper shaken <br />Very fast, up and down, <br />Makes a fluttering noise, <br />That's heard well by the ears. <br /> <br />A train that moves <br />Or a jet that flies, <br />What a noise it makes? <br />This everyone knows. <br /> <br />Our mother earth rotates, <br />Non-stop, on its axis, <br />But where the noise goes, <br />Fast, around, as it moves? <br /> <br />The stars on the night sky <br />Who can count, how many? <br />Who keeps them afloat, <br />When they're moving fast? <br /> <br />Does the sea swallow the land, <br />When the earth rotates around? <br />From the hot sun or the wild wind, <br />Who saves the entire mankind? <br /> <br />As an invisible power, the supernatural, <br />And a performer of any kind of miracle, <br />He lives in our heart, as the Supreme God <br />And for our comfort, He gifted this world. <br /> <br />He can do or undo, as the Almighty. <br />Any thing, He can create or destroy. <br />Every balancing act, for Him, it's a play, <br />And He controls the Universe this way. <br /> <br />He asks from us nothing? <br />Our faith in Him unending <br />And our love for fellow being <br />That's what, He's expecting.<br /><br />Rajaram Ramachandran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/seed-first-or-tree-first/
