Peace Mantra [A poem]

some are sad in heaven.

Some are happy in hell.

Some do suicide at homes.

Some smile in a prison cell.

Life isn't a sweet ride

On an obedient steed.

Life is an open wound.

Don't rotten it with greed.

Greed is an endless journey.

More greed  gives more pain.

Chase only what you need.

Live  peaceful, simple and plain.

You are unique, remember.

Don't compare you with anyone.

Comparison will drive you insane.

Comparison, you must shun .

Don't envy anyone's success.

''One success begins another struggle.''

Life is like a video game:

Higher level gives  bigger trouble.

Choose your friends carefully

Like you choose items of dress.

See quality, comfort and size

Seek not only to impress.

Why you want permanent things?

 In this temporary life?

 Let happily go whoever goes:

 Job ,friend or pretty wife.

Best life is not measured

 By fans, bank balance or post.

 The best man is the one

 who truly smiles most .
