Be happy

NafisaSB

View the world with rose-colored glasses

Wear a bright smile while entering your classes

Whatever happens, do not be sad

For sorrow is momentary, so buck up, be glad.

Sunshine is always accompanied by shade

And yet, there is hope, which never does fade

The rose-plant has thorns, but it also bears flowers

So utilize your minutes, don’t count the hours.

The world is a mirror which reflects all your acts

Some may be bad- but then, they are facts

If you stand in the sun, you have to bear the heat

You have to pluck the corn, in order to procure wheat.

Life is sheer misery, or it is pure fun

You have to raise your face, in order to see the sun.

You can enjoy life, but the chances are very rare

If you do not have the courage to do or to dare.

So be bold, be daring, be happy as a jay

To find Happiness – a needle in the hay

Start smiling now – don’t wait for another day

And if you are willing – you are sure to find a way.

            I'm sorry
            I'm just a fool for poetry
            so I rudely, scribble
            long opinionated remarks
            usually.. lol
            I know it must be tiring to deal with
            thanks for putting up with me
            I never mean to disrespect the poet
            when I do, just that
            i'm overtly overzealous..
            but for this prayer of a poem
            i felt, a sincere 'amen' fitted best..
            (in future I'll tone down my longer replies
            on your poems
            *well after this one* lol
            thanks for letting me know
            last thing I want to do is annoy you
            dear poet)

            you are mistaken my friend. on the contrary i look forward to reading your in-depth analysis : it is refreshing to hear what you have to say.. i don't find it over zealous, and am not annoyed. glad to have your frank reviews in fact, so please don't tone it down - i welcome whatever thoughts and ideas the readers have to share. good day
