Poetry by Praveen Nichani

Happy Life!

Discuss this poem

How happy can thou be
if thou not share, if thou not care
all that God hath cared to share

How happy can thou be
if thou wish to dwell in bricks & sand
and not in peoples' hearts & mind

How happy can thou be
if feelings and desires are your masters
to realize that they aren't the ones to aspire !

‘Happy’ though not the word
to speak our emotional chord ;
we still need to play this game.
athough being happy isn't life's aim

Thy soul happy, only
when ever prepared for death
having not cared for this fleeting breath

Thy soul happy , only
when learns to give and forgive
for God has oft with you the same

Thy soul happy, only
when lived with honesty and truth
be the same while in majesty and in ruth!
