Sonnet Life
Thy death will show the world how you lived,
Thy life story will reveal thy successes and failures;
The efforts you made will speak what you achieved,
And all will go down in history as your deliverers.
The number of grievers who attend will show
How popular you were and what they remember;
Dust will settle down soon and stealth will all know,
Your goodness to others will only be cinders.
Don't endure rigidity in your affairs and dealings
This will not help you while you are blooming;
Nor will it have a positive impact on your leaving
These little things if you abide will be enduring.
You still have the time to mend your ways,
Too late is not that late to begin the stakes.
