Life taught us a lesson, <br />to appreciate with passion. <br />Life taught us a song, <br />that we have to sing along. <br />Appreciating souls are few, <br />the rest are at curfew. <br />Relax and think, we may understand, <br />When pollen appreciate a flower, <br />When a peahen appreciates a dancing peacock, <br />When a teacher appreciates a student, <br />When a leader appreciates the followers, <br />When I appreciate you and you appreciate me, <br />a gem of harmony evolves from our hearts.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-gem-in-us/
