Contentment gives the best sentiment, As our mood turns excellent, Our mind thinks brilliant, We neither repent nor resent, Sorrow is absent, Peace comes cent percent.


Fire Like Desire


Fame is no doubt loved by all
But, it is dangerous my dear pal
Once you have become famous
You are adored by all as a genius

You want to maintain that fame
So that all will chant your name
You lose your precious sleep
And dreams you do not reap

Your love for fame becomes greed
Everyone's attention is your need
This makes you take funny decision
Here only devil makes an invasion

You cannot ever remain youthful
Even if you are to your body truthful,
Though your path is full with applause
God has put age as a necessary clause

You want the World to consistently admire
It is like reaching Sun to feel its divine fire
Your thirst for name and fame increases
Here only your wisdom completely ceases

You want to achieve more and more
Fame alone will never be a bore
Whatever may be your profession
Supremacy in it becomes an obsession

There will be surely skillful competitors
Who may be toiling hard for many hours
Due to this rat-race for supreme position
You will gradually lose your noble fore vision

Soon will take over another person the podium
He will be greatly applauded by the stadium
Entire media will shift to him the attention
This will terribly multiply giving you tension

Once you develop contentment at a stage
You beat in wit and wisdom every sage
Your heart says with greatest joy "enough"
Peace becomes your mind's main stuff

Dear friend, joy grows under our own feet
Offer peace in your heart a permanent seat
If you can do this, then your bliss is assured
Your placement in God's heart is ensured.
