caring mode

NafisaSB

A sense of good humour will help you in life

A smile or a wave will help to end strife

A frown will not help

Nor will a jeer

So always do try to smile and to cheer

 

The lockdown is crippling

It’s taken its toll

So many are jobless

So many on dole

 

Insecurity in life

Turns man mean and bad

Outwitting all others

Even their very own brothers

 

Riding a high horse

Intolerant of jest

These are the people

Who consider they’re best

 

Taunting and jeering are really quite bad

Why can’t one be gracious - even to a cad

Being rude and unkind will lead you nowhere

It’s high time one learnt to care and to share

 

Be gracious to others

Listen to their tale

A smile is a curve

That’s not been known to fail

 

Learn to be tolerant

To hear one and all

To respond to a plea

Or an urgent help call

 

Our patience is being tested

Things are at a head

Do not look at life

With fear and with dread

 

Lend out a hand

Reply to a post

Do not be proud

Do not try to boast

 

Life teaches us a lot

It’s upto us to learn

It pays to be good

And some brownie points earn

 

So shed that grim frown

It will lighten up your load

Try to be always

In the ‘happy, caring mode’

    'Riding a high horse
    Intolerant of jest
    These are the people
    Who consider they’re best'..
    wonderfully, idyllic
    message, dear poet
    and yet, so realisable
    with little
    effort and a pinch of humility..
    still
    inevitably, we watch
    as unseen it passes, most
    like
    the clouds they forget
    to heed...
