Life's Bountiful Gifts Poem by M. Asim Nehal

From birth to death, we live life in bits and pieces
some gifts that enrich us during this journey
is surrounded by blessings and love of those around.
We are named, a symbol of identity,
a mark of distinction, a unique entity
fame, a beacon, a light that can shine,
Illuminating paths, making dreams entwine
friendship's bond, a treasure to hold,
a source of strength, a story to be told
knowledge, a light that dispels the night,
empowering minds, guiding us towards the right
food, a nourishment, a vital thread,
sustaining our bodies, keeping us fed
wealth, a means to comfort and ease
to provide shelter, from life's storms to appease.
Finally, with gratitude in our hearts, casting out all fear
for in this earthly realm, where we reside,
Life's bountiful gifts forever abide.
