In Appreciation

In Appreciation by Bubbles Kandhari

Do not feel let down

When some people betray

To their own plot some day

They will eventually fall prey.

If they did not discover you

The loss is all theirs

You are one in a million

And for those people, who cares?

Do not waste the precious pearls from your eyes

All the pain within, do try to disguise.

You are the rarest gem

Whose value not all can realize

Who will treasure it?

But the sage and the wise.

Your petal soft heart

Bleeds with everyone’s’ pain

Your childlike innocence

Cannot fathom people who pretend and feign.

You call a spade a spade

Even if some don’t like it I am afraid

Your simplicity is the one that touches people’s hearts

The tensions and worries of others you cart.

The ocean of love within

Brings care and consideration around

Your goodness of soul

Helps the helpless unbound

Do not change today

If some people let you down

Do not even bother

To even wince or frown.

You are the lucky one

Closer to God

Unfortunate are they

For whom you are of no accord.

You are a jewel

Such in a million one you find

People like you are a blessing to mankind.
