Arms and the Men.

Govern your well built arms

Before you begin to govern others.

If arms are raised  rough to assault, 

Misrule does not miss its goal.

Instead,if arms are raised to wipe

The tears of the troubled mankind,

Ruling yardsticks measure the height

And depth of the quality of governance.

Where the arms belong,is immaterial.

How they are raised,is a point to ponder.

For what purpose the arms are raised,

Wins precisely,the objectives of governance.

If the head moves to the right spot ahead

At the right time,the body follows suit.

The body of the government budges to the head,

Whose vision is clear and directions are dear.

When the sheltering shoulders steer to the people,

They rest their rejected arms,on the harbouring host.

It is then,a government of the people and for the people,

Passes out perfectly,as the one formed by the people.

The arms of the people are always raised for those,

Whose arms of governance are found in apple pie order.

Governance means a galvanized human chain movement,

That links the arms and the men,for many a great moment.
