Minimalism Does Good Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Minimalists are happier
Than maximalists in general.
The more you possess or control
The more you are possessed in turn.

Minimalists are the master
Of their ego that entails them
No greediness or jealousy,
The two happiness destroyers.

Minimalists are the master
Of their wants that entail them
No rate race or anxiety,
The two happiness wreckers.

Having a few things to handle
Will save you time and spare you stress.
Living with minimum comforts
Will earn you bodily resistance.

M.K. Gandhi was an epitome
Of minimalism, to note.
Jayalalitha was an example
Of maximalism, with sad end.
