The Most Vital thing in life

:196: This is a didactic poem I've read in Sound and Sense … hope you will like it …

When you feel like saying something
That you know you will regret,
Or keenly feel an insult
Not quite easy to forget,
That's the time to curb resentment
And maintain a mental peace,
For when your mind is tranquil
All your ill-thought simply cease.

It is easy to be angry
When defrauded or defied
To be peeved and disappointed
If your wishes are denied;
But to win a worthwhile battle
Over selfishness and spite,
You must learn to keep strict silence
Though you know you're right.

So keep your mental balance
When confronted by a foe,
Be it enemy in ambush
Or some danger that you know.
If you are poised and tranquil
When all around is strife,
Be assure that you have mastered
The most vital thing in life.

Happy Eid:36_4_12:
