Hail to thee, Oh! legs
the ones who carry me
bearing all my weight
making possible to move
epitome of resilience.
Namaskar to the hands
those enable a pick
a drop, a write,
a push and an embrace
symbolizing grace .
An applause to the eyes
which see wanted and
unwanted, picturing
a caricature of life and world
synchronizing both.
That be to the nose
smells fragrance and foul.
breathes in and out,
a systematic exercising
denoting life.
No lesser comes the mouth
means of expression and of
sustenance, doing both
good and bad in words
and intake of food.
The other regions
not to leave off the brain
and the heart those
that command, act,
and execute.
An anthem to the body,
a song worthier than
six pence, loaded
with gratitude
and love.
