Never let the grief moist your eyes,
face all the troubles with smiles.
IF you say you are not happy,
look at those who are not lucky.
IF you say you don't have enough for comforting,
look at those who have nothing.
IF you say you are fed up of crossing hurdles,
look at those, life long who face troubles,
who take birth, grow and die in troubles.
IF you say you are in pain and not at ease,
look at those who suffer with chronic disease.
IF you say you are in grief,
look at those who never get relief.
IF you say you don't have best,
look at those, even basic needs who don't get.
stop complaining about your fate,
value it, before its too late.
always be thankful to god,
you are fortunate, he blessed you lot.
be happy and satisfied.
stop complaining and kill the greed.
GOD MADE YOU WHOLE AND COMPLETE.
still if you curse your fate,
then look at these people,
you will feel yourself fortunate.
look at the limbless man NICK VUJICIC
you will cry but you will learn to smile.
look at the diseased scientist STEPHEN HAWKINGS.
you will wish for death but you will learn to live.
look at the blade runner OSCAR PISTORIOUS
you will feel week but you will learn to be strong.
look at the mother PAULINE with no arms to hold her child
you will be angry but you will learn to be soft and mild.
for the world these people are diseased and 'incomplete'
but their spirit, no one can never ever defeat.
they are the people haunted with 'incompleteness'
but they live life, as if they own world of happiness.

IF you say you are in pain and not at ease, look at those who suffer with chronic disease. IF you say you are in grief, look at those who never get relief. These are remarkable lines which i read now. I wonder the way the poet pick the topics and each time comes with Genuine topic related to humanity. Bingo! Humanity is lost i shout! Yet this poem shows still a human being is sensitive. let me doff the poet for nature style..
