What matters?

Rk 2005 (Punjab)



Something more crucial than cash,
but you put in your hours like trash.

It's a treasure, true self
Who cares, just chit-chat about wealth.

Now you are chasing after money,
In due time, there will be chasing after life,
Ahhh very funny.

Age never hangs fire, not for a moment,
Today materialistic world governs you
Tomorrow you will be governing if capable, it's adamant.

Your existence is not concerns within four walls,
get in the Big sky, it's an urgent call.

About this poem

Life is very beautiful adventure- appreciable gift from god, though it is challenging but facing these challenges make life more beautiful. For some people life is hopeless but they do not know life is a real wealth.
