Bag of Virtues

Conversing with thyself one day,
I realized knowledge paired with confidence, always paved a way.

Incessant series of thoughts shivered my spine,
Realizing amidst the crowd, I’ve lost my shine.

Fore-sighting my goal, gave an incite in my head,
Loosing the battle was all I dread.

Packed with energy and planning towards the ziel(goal),
Journey of life started to unveil.

Adjusting thyself in the frame of others,
Fostering foes as well as brothers.

“Get Ahead of others”, was all to be heard,
Bag of Virtues was somewhere lost,
Little did we realize it too had a cost.

At this phase in life, I realized food, shelter and clothing
Were not all needed to thrive.

Give your soul, the food it needs,
Decorate your platter with good words and deeds!
