Rosy
Rosy cheeks, pink lipstick
She looked enchanting
Beautiful like a fairy
Enamored, he wanted to marry her
He was wealthy, she gladly accepted
Soon he realized without makeup
She was ordinary
Her most time spend in front of mirror,
beauty parlour
She was costly, egoistic and adamant
He regretted his decision
But endured her
Within few years,
she died of skin cancer
One day, he saw a woman
serving an old, ailing person on road
He helped her and fell in love with her
She was not beautiful outside,
but had a lovely heart
Always serving others
Blissful vibrations surrounded her
He proposed her
She laid one condition
I want to serve other's,
He agreed wholeheartedly
He sold his business, bungalow
Shifted to a small house
That's enough for both she said
With his money and hard work
Both set out spreading happiness
More they gave
More donations poured in
The joy of watching someone happy
The smile and gratefulness in their face
Gave them boundless joy
They lived happily till death
using body and mind to serve others
They lived a rosy life full of joy
