I swear by God
On whom
I am yet to place my faith….

I swear by my mother
On whom

I never swear by me
On whom
I have placed everything I have……

Thank you, K.VEE.Shanker.

The I is the observation of the leaders(!?) of India. They will swear by anything except themselves.

Very nice that you had read this one....

Please read other poems also and give your comments as your comments may be more relevant since you share the same background of mine - that is, India.....

Good Luck, Good Day.......
