Years ago
I went into a shop
Selling
All mobile phones
And paraphernalia.
My mission:
To buy a new charger.
The counter walla
Tendered me a box
Containing the charger.
Literally the descriptions
In micro fonts were
In myriad lingos
But English.
Looking at my
Baffled look,
The vendor explained,
"Sir, it's China made."
Alas!
I was at complete loss.
Wondering
Couldn't this simple
Piece be manufactured
In India?
By the way
We can determine
To shun all things
Chinese?
But in the Nation of
Rig Veda,
- 'Let noble thoughts come
From all the sides.' -
Won't we be at loss,
If we don't cherish
Good sayings,
Proverbs et al
From the shores of China.
