Reduction of distance
MANJALARUVIL JOSEPH CHANDY 1943 (Kottayam in Kerala,)
Who said, ho said it was far,
Said no one, but can seen in every dealing,
In speech no distance to God,
But did see in dealings with everybody
No body looked at HIM when in happiness,
But forcefully looking at in bitterness,
Earth shaking, moving up and down
The onlookers did see nothing but ruins
A lesson for all to and to look up
To accept HIM, the creator,
HE can make everything as it was,
As he created earlier
