Envy
A tickle by George Bain
October 24, 2001
Words, words, words, the most difficult accomplishment yet, to use them, properly
To be or not to be, that is the question, made the rounds and was understood
Tomorrow will never come, tomorrow is today, also
But continue to give me your weak, your sick and your discontent, WAS the ticket and soon still will be.

For each one that seeks in earnest will most likely find, if given a chance and will harvest
Pearls and jewels and all his wishes
No one will stand on his way
No matter how grand, no matter how tall his wishes be
And following his chosen path he/she will help many

Respect the rights of others, to also follow the path
To also wish and to also dream hi
Since the road is wide and the wishers are plenty
Don’t waver don’t dilly be attentive, work hard, for this is a real HAJ
And if honking you hear, take to your right and don’t look back
For someone is faster and is asking to pass

If in your path, you see weary and have water to spare give it
If in your path you see cloth less and have to spare give it
And in if your path you find lost ones give them advise
For in the amount you give thy will find your reward
Even if all you have is furniture making store and a book

Never never never be envious
Never take from the have’s, although you have not
Read more books, study harder and continue to push, you may pass them ahead
And in your rush to accomplish, don’t forget those you pass
Don’t look back don’t stop and only help if you can

Life is only one and given you
To care and improve and use at your will
But be sure the Giver will be asking for explanations on wear and tear on it
You will also be asked, if you took life or any of its parts from others without their will
Without their consent and much less without their liking
And the Giver shall collect on every cent and gram taken of life against his or her will
By sending the Rangers after

The Golden Rule thou have been looking for was in front of you at all times
Work hard, be honest and help those you can, take nothing not yours and bless mom and dad while eating some apple pie, American style, with ice cream.
