Far from the maddening crowd, <br />Here is a man <br />Making rare inroads into life. <br />Far from the din of the world, <br />Here is a loving heart <br />Whispering universal brotherhood. <br /> <br />Far in the silent woods <br />He leads a peaceful life. <br />To the beckoning heart of nature <br />He lends a consoling hand. <br /> <br />And his monkeys and squirrels, <br />Winged and gilled clan is blest. <br />In the warmth of supreme love <br />He feeds them rice and grains. <br /> <br />And he spends his treasure, <br />Tailed and winged clique is safe. <br />And through their silent eyes <br />He sees the expressions of god. <br />Blest is his soul-he serves his heart <br />And where are our springs? very much torn apart.<br /><br />Ravi Panamanna<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-benevolent-heart/
