In a lifetime you can be so thoughtless
Laughter with fellows you keep sharing
Jewelry and diamond you keep wearing
In fancy mansions you keep living
sumptuous food you keep savouring
Luxurious cars you are always driving
To the end of the world you are travelling
Without thinking of others' sufferings
Till the moment when you find it all meaningless
When physical satisfaction becomes tasteless
You end up asking what can make my happiness
You bought yourself everything money can buy
Bluffing your heart all along
Thinking you can never be wrong
Hopelessly looking for the profound joy
That can last for a lifetime
Seeking help from a source outside
While profound joy is deep inside
Use your heart to look around
With your kindness sense your soul
Put your charity at the disposal
Use your soul to spread joy for all
You will perceive the profound joy
Without thinking of others' sufferings When physical satisfaction becomes tasteless You end up asking what can make my happiness...deep inside there is a treasure cave of joy...... charity, selflessness spread joy everywhere to the needy and the poor........ and you begin to smile...... such a loving thought......... charity has no religion....only the religion of eternal love........ we shall go through this path of the poetess to find happiness. thank u dear poetess. tony
