Patience and Kindness

- V Jayanthi

The Patience person will excel in life,

The envious person loses their joy in strife.

One who loves life deeply and true

Doesn’t know how to stay angry with you.

They carry no jealousy hidden inside,

Their heart stays open, gentle with pride.

Being polite is truly their art,

Kind words flow straight from the heart

They win not by noise, anger, or fight,

But by calm minds and actions right.

In patience they grow, in kindness they stay,

Such souls light the world every day.
