Another Poem

This is another poem that I had penned ages ago. 30/09/2000 to be specific. One of my favourites.

If you can't be the fragrance,
Be like the breeze.
If you can't be the flower,
Be like the bees.

If you can't be the sun,
Be it's warmth on a rainy day.
If you can't be the moon,
To be it's coolness you must pray.

If you can't be the ocean,
Be the stream that relieves the thirsty.
If you can't be the sky,
Be the star that guides silently.

If you can't be the nourishing earth,
Be the dirt that feeds the tree.
If you can't be Almighty God,
Be His love that sets man free.

You are given a place on this Earth,
Lead your life in a useful way.
Strive to make it a beautiful place,
Make it happier by night and day.

All one needs in life is love,
Give it to all who need.
Don't waste time; life is short,
Every day do your noble deed.
