Give Laziness No Business

Surely you can achieve, if you try
To take honest efforts, feel not shy
In case your aim is nobly Sky-high
Great miracles, may catch your eye

By practicing with real enthusiasm
With your mind filled with optimism
You will invariably get dynamism
And acquire power of mesmerism

Laziness will fetch defeat as a result
As you will feel living is very difficult
No great medals are tied in your belt
Continuous losses will come to insult

If you prefer to keep quiet and snore
You do nothing for the World to adore
Your presence, the World will ignore
As you regard hard-work as a bore

My dear Comrade, wake up now
Do a superior task with real love
To do a noble deed, take a vow
You will be helped by God-above.

Dear Donald Reith, I thank your for your kind comment, Only for duty my song is meant, To encourage only it is sent, Let in work place time be spent, Wage is for our sweat-fall rent, In work-spot, be present, Sweat-smell is the best scent, Making life pleasant.

It would be well served to put this poem on my barge where I work with my fellow ironworkers. I like these words of wisdom. Thanks mvvenkataraman

Such a wonderful verse to read, You admonish but do so gently and your last verse sums it up beautifully.
