Happiness In Market

Happiness in market

P K Routray

Happiness, men always search

in temple, mosque and church,

in wealth, power and success

but till the end they seldom possess.

A man on the throne with crown,

a man with wealth enough to swim and drown,

a man starving and sleeping on street,

a man seeking opportunity to rob and cheat,

a man in chair with mighty power,

a sage in forest searching the God, happiness to shower,

all are jealous of one another

envying the anticipated happiness in the other.

If happiness can be a commodity

with sales and purchase possibility

and facility to store, withdraw and deposit,

accounting it with its loss and profit.

Compete will all with one another

to purchase, steal, snatch and plunder.

Obviously man with power will score

with lust and greed he will try for more and more.

But all eyes will be cast on this treasure

worries of guarding it will rob his pleasure.

Fail will surely he to transfer the treasure to his inner state

to avoid the imbalance for which the trick God did not create

As God is always aware of His man’s greed

Hence happiness he linked with man’s deed.
