Let us begin each day by thanking the Lord, <br />For this life He has give, <br />And all that we have got. <br />Think of those who are less fortunate than <br />you, <br />And count your blessings, each day, anew! <br /> <br />By being jealous of others, and always speaking <br />ill, <br />You can never cover-up your own shortcomings! <br />For ill words, like the boomerang, of those <br />Ausralian tribes, <br />Has a habit of hitting back, on all your lies! <br />Till one day you stand disgraced, amongst relatives <br />and friends, <br />For truth always prevails till the very end! <br /> <br />Be wary of the Lord, though He is merciful <br />and kind, <br />He keeps His eyes open, and He is not blind! <br />If He decides to withdraw a few blessings given <br />to you, <br />You will regret it all your life, not knowing <br />what to do! <br />Try to be a good person instead, <br />And keep thanking the Lord till your very end.<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/count-your-blessings-7/
