Smile Amidst Strife Poem by Dr John Celes

When tragedy strikes, heart breaks irreparably,
Our little world appears to have ended,
Life’s meaningless and worthless to live on,
The breath of life is suddenly now rented,
Our inner thoughts take us to verge of death,
And lost is the purpose of our earthly birth,
A desperate heart woefully remains,
God sends down His blessings as rains,
And makes us realize a fact that hope
Within every person to cope,
Revealing compassion for our brethren
That turns the world into a small heaven!
