Manner

Good manner makes good friends

Some love to compare and sigh for no reason

As if they are captive in the self made prison

They  always  try to measure others’ treasure

They feel jealous when others seem better

They gloat if others have less than them

And make all efforts to feel deep shame

I hate those who find joy in humiliation

They are like beast in the shape of human

Their manner hurts many innocent hearts

They are always merciless and harsh

I hope such people will change for ever

To live with others for friendly favor

Being a gloating fool is nothing to gloat over. No one possesses anything but for a fleeting moment. To gloat over an ephemeral advantage is a foolish activity. Even our bodies are incomplete copies of what they were seven years before. I count my momentary blessings and wish the same for all others.

Thank you Aethereal for the sagacious statement.
Yes, to gloat over an ephemeral advantage is a foolish activity.
I am very glad that you have taken time to read and review to enlighten all of us.

I fear these people will never change. Instead of being happy for another's success, they prefer to hold tight to their selfishness and jealousy...sad...

Thank you Mary for being so kind to review this work.
I can understand your feeling.
But,it is really impossible to handle these individuals in real life.
So,it will be a relief for the peace loving innocent people if the jealous persons change themselves.

amen!

love the sentiment in this one...and nicely presented...with wording that makes us ponder how we present ourselves and how we treat others.
