The Call of The gods
-when the gods calls
-in their towering honours
-depicting the beauty
-of thier royal deity
-many heads are cowed
-in the dream of ignorance..
-the gods of the sun and of the moon
-the gods of the rivers, seas and oceans
-the gods of the thunder
-the gods of the iron
-even the gods of the animals
-and all the creeping beings
-all the gods unamed
-take their prices with pride
-from the ignorant minds
-even with the bond
-of an erring dis-service..
-but there is only one GOD
-full of humility in a rare love
-giving all desires for free
-and able to take all breathing souls
-to wherever they chose to belong..
-the GOD of heaven and earth
-creator of all creations and creatures!
-deserves all honours and bows!
