Poise
 
Colors give beauty and delight the
Eyes.
Flowers reflect beauty and offer
Sweet smell.
Food and water energize the body,
While a husband and a wife look up
For each other’s trust.
Do not overlook the poor 
Dream for money,
Why a feeling that the rich willingly
Gives up money?
Those in the helm feel that their 
Positions are permanent.
Never feel that the pessimist 
Easily gives up hope.
The sick will always yearn for health;
The oppressed'eyes dry with the dawn
Of  freedom;
Be mindful that things might change.
The mighty has fallen and the weak
Has risen. Patience is wisdom,
But might show itself as cowardice.
Some impossibility are attempted, 
Contemplated or explored, while the
Succeeding generations are always 
Adventurous and curious.
Everything has been characterized and
Nothing is permanent, 
Except, GOD.
Things might change as in infancy
To adolescence.
But everything may melt
At Mesosphere, yes! Be poised, 
The minds are great
And very wonderful.
Here again, and again, 
The impossible, which is do-able,
No, more, no, more,
In a world of mind intellect,
Set we go the bell is gone.
