Margarita Lillico Poet Rhyme

One Common Ground

One common ground we all share,
That life maps for us - fair and square;
We do start scattered all around,
Ending up in common ground.
From down below we aren't much worth -
While still above, let's save the earth.

Mv Venkataraman June 1, 2022 at 10:01 AM The six lines clearly define life superbly also. She has made us think through her Socratic words to silence us by exhibiting sheer truth. I admire her profound thinking and in a way feel humiliated for my inability to think and write a gem like this! Margarita Lillico June 1, 2022 at 12:05 PM Thank you, she is humbled:)
