Gods and Devils

One day I met a lady,
Who nursed a vulnerable bird, 
Who somehow, landed in her verandah.
God I thought, has  His abode in her heart.
The very next day I saw that woman,
Hitting a stray dog with a stick,
Who somehow, managed to get into her verandah.
“Has Devil overtaken the God?” I asked myself.
That shocked me a lot and then I concluded  -
Gods and Devils are nothing but states of mind.
