Karma

Karma is a circle.
It goes round like a wheel.
A record of your actions;
What you give and what you steal.

Good things in life, and bad things
Will surely come to pass.
And what you do to others
May come back and bite your ass.

Wow. This is what Karma is, what it does, and how it serves justice. Great piece. Short, sweet, and we'll said.

Great write, Rich. Very good advice! It's got to fall on somebody.

Thanks, Dan. Guess this poem covers a vast multitude these days. Hope they get what's coming to them.

Great poem that I can sadly relate to Rich ... I hope karma really does exist in bucket loads for someone who was in my life - what goes around comes around and she is due to get her comeuppance one day! hugs jan xx

Dedicated this to my former supervisor who made up lies about me. Thanks for your comment. Guess this poem covers multiple characters.
