Gratitude
I beheld my cousin lying on her bed
With streams flowing from eyes red
Piles of presents invisible and dead
As her birthday into the darkness fled
Cheeks glistening, and streaked
Her ego, as always, towards the sky crept
She pounced on me and proudly held
The birthday card which she had snatched
Which said-”Gratefulness- a virtue missing
In many and a must in most, look around
The world is filled to the brim
With things to be thankful for
Lust for hoarding things is the poison
And gratitude for visible things is the antidote.”
