THE WILD FLOWER
~Vz Vualnam

As I walked about
The ruins of Vikramshila
Where in the far past
Wisdom poured forth
And flooded the plain
Like the mighty Ganges
That flows by its side now does
People throng
The place in great number
To see the mighty structure
In ruinsAs I kept walking
A humble wild flower
Did I seeBy the side of the path
While no one stopped by
To admire its beauty
I sat dawn beside it
To behold the tiny damsel
In all its grandeur‘
No one might stop by
To admire thy beauty
Sorrowest thou not
For here I am
Who stopped to admire
Thy unmatched beauty
Thou art more lovely
Than those in the garden
That man prune each morn’
I whisperedAs I stood to leave
A thought crossed my mind
Do we each day live
With our eyes fixed On the big things about
And miss to admire
The small thing that outweight
The beauty and grandeur
Of the big thing
