rajendran muthiah - Jealousy

Children grouse about the ill-treatment
of the poor by the teachers,
and feel envy towards the wards of the rich.
When they are infected by this virus,
they are easy preys to some adults
who make them steal to heal their greed.
The teachers should nip the bud of jealousy
by telling tales and sharing the surplus things.
The boys and girls are unhappy
when the unworthy are given better marks
and they hate the partial teachers
and avoid to see them and respect them.
The grown-up boys are eaten up with grudge
when their favourites wink at others.
They need counsels to compromise with
some of the abundant beauties present everywhere.
Jealousy motivates the good to invent and produce
but aggravates the bad to make bombs and kill.
