POEM: Three Poems

-M Mizanur Rahman
 
Capital
Your capital is neither money nor
property-making machine
though you talk mostly in that term.
And for that you do much more harm
to your real capital human beings.

 
Service
Don’t hate the one who serves you
because the service is
always God’s bliss.
The servant who serves you
that may be a man or a woman
and its hands only give you peace
and comfort
but nothing sort
of your return in lieu
of its service can make up its exact due.

 Of Human Happiness
 
Why do you seek your happiness
in the wilderness?
Your happiness lies in the human in you.
That’s your duty to serve others
you should do.
And therein lies all pleasures
and beauties
that you may feel and enjoy on this
natural earthly base
of human happiness.
