THE DONKEY

BENOY.P.J

The donkey has been thought of as a brainless animal

The donkey, that had carried Jesus on his back!

The donkey has been thought of as one who brays

Because the world had closed its ears to its music

The donkey would carry a sack of sand

To the hill top, while no horse would venture to go

It would carry a wayfarer without a crown

And it dangles its organ and cries out its frustration

An animal of the street side, why should it loiter in stables?
