Beyond Human Comprehension

P K Routray

Two friends at their early teens

on their quest to study rural scenes

to get a feel of a rural urban life style comparison

went to spend in a rural village a vacation.

In this village lived many a farmer

farming the fields around with hard labor.

While passing by the farming fields

thrilled were they seeing the yields.

Enchanted were they gazing at many plants bearing variety of fruits

captivated were they at the sight of tender plants spreading their shoots.

Noticed they big pumpkins on slender creepers

crawling on the ground with many flowers.

Small berries on big plants, they had earlier seen

compared they those trees with creepers of pumpkin

“Small fruit on a big plant and big fruit on a small creeper”

Looked odd to them and they criticized their creator.

From a nearby tall tree a berry fell on one’s head all on a sudden

as if to give them a caution to be careful in assessing such opinion.

Had it been a pumpkin the brain would have cracked open.

The Almighty perhaps has such facts in mind while harmonizing the creation.

Earlier they saw green heavy coconuts never fell on their own

where as light dry coconut falls down too often.

They realized that the creator always does His job with meticulous perfection

Hidden logic behind each of His acts is divine which is beyond human comprehension.
