Enraged jealousy in a mind
that's like a child's
selfish beyond belief
you need to get a life
If you go through life
watching what other people do
you'll have no life left
with nobody to blame but you
If they have this, if they have that
does it matter that you haven't got
what they have got
Be thankful for what you have
because some people don't have a dime
but they don't complain
they see life for what it is......
An honour and a privilege
thankful is a noble way to honor the life an evocative poem.. Be thankful for what you have because some people don't have a dime but they don't complain they see life for what it is...... An honour and a privilege love this stanza, so true and inspiring

Great poem Dave, very true. It's always wise to be grateful for what you have, because one day it could become what you had. Xx
jealousy is a evil root leading to no good. lovely thoughts here.
One who harbours jealousy can never be happy, whereas contentment lies at the root of happiness. Another wise and true write from your pen.
