Best Greeds Poems


Premium Member Calmness of the Mind and Soul

Where can we find the calmness of our minds and souls
Our minds are always running wild
Images of dreams overlap and overlap
Until they are messy and entangled
Dream may or may not come true 
If it comes true, it'll become a reality
It yields satisfaction
Followed by the calmness of the mind and soul
If it doesn't  come true, it'll become an illusion
It yields disappointment 
Followed by the restlessness of the mind and soul
Unknown and uncertainity
Fate and destiny, fear and worry
Greed and dissatisfaction
Guilt and  inferiority
All will erode the calmness of our minds and souls
Maybe we will find calmness in love and confidence
True and justice
And of course not excluding a religion 
As a chance to achieve
The calmness of our minds and souls
We can adopt a religion 
And pray to the almighty god
Who is always a good listener  
And a good comforter

Premium Member A Liar

A liar
He knows the truth 
But he never speaks the truth
Recently a lot of politicians
Tend to become liars
Just for canvassing and power
The point is that 
They got a lot of supporters
People are willing to listen to them
Just for a better tomorrow
To satisfy greeds
Because of ignorance
Carelessness
Poverty
And helplessness
A liar only success 
When there are listeners
Unlike you never listen to God
Because there is no immediate manifestation and evidence
Lies of politicians can come true with
Scandals, curses and evils
A liar has an evil heart
And so the supporters with greeds
The most awesome evil

Premium Member The Codominum

The earth becomes so congested
Condominiums spring up 
Like mushrooms after the rain
Rooms become so congested
Like the hearts
Full of greeds and dreams
Like the souls 
Full of expectations and pressures
Many hearts and many souls 
Confined in a block of cement walls
But hearts and souls 
With different dreams and expectations
Can never be confined
Can never reach a compromise
To keep peace and serenity 
On earth
Even with God's advice

Premium Member A Beggar

We like to ask God 
To grant our wishes 
In our prayers
We yearn for more and more
Abundant wishes
Endless desires
Like a life long beggar
Greeds of man
Always make him a beggar
Overbearing of man 
Makes him a devil
Only give and take
Will make him a gentleman

Premium Member Sometimes We Pay Extra

Sometimes we pay double extra
During inflation
Price rise in cooking oil
It has been a long time
We're eating waste oil
Increment in electric bills
Already suffering from 
An extreme  hot day
Price rise in cars
MCO lingers 
We're unable to change cars
Price rise in household electrical appliances
Have to buy an expensive 
All-purpose cooker
Price rise in worshipping supplies
Have to ask for God's forgiveness
Rise in bus fare
Pity the children
Free education but burdened transport fare
Price rise in chicken eggs
Have to use less tasty duck's eggs
Price rise in farm fresh drinks
All along no confidence
Price rise in beers
Not all the people's favourite
Price rise in sugar
Saccharin is already widely used
Price rise in bread and mee
Have to change to 
Less tasty rice buns and meehoon
Besides inflation and tax increase
We do pay double extra
For people's carelessness
Ignorance
And greeds
All finally will result in 
An eternal suffering

Premium Member A Constant Ratio

Life was only gifted once
Now is to be divided into portions
More work less rest
More ambitions less leisures
More output more stress 
More input more burden 
More benefit more contributions 
Less greeds less guilts 
Many a fraction 
But just a simple Mathematics  
And a constant ratio to follow

Premium Member The Day of Halloween

The emerging of wizards and ghosts
On a night of deep and frightening darkness 
Children dressed in special costumes,hats and masks
With a Jack-o'-lantern in hands
Hoping to frighten the evil spirits away
Things with bad omens like black cats, bats and spiders
Are completely avoided
The number of 13 is also discarded
With the coincidence of Halloween
We may also drive away the ghosts in our hearts 
Drive away the greed, jealousy and cowardness
Long embedded in our hearts
So that a place is forever reserved 
For our Almighty God

Greeds Cost

There are those that seek their own
self-seeking folk - wild oats they've sown
In air afloat they drift aloft
above the masses on breezes tossed
when land they do - great shock received
they find cost heavy o' pride and greed

Premium Member Copyright

History of a country 
Will not be copyright 
And forced to make an alteration
Whenever a big mistake is found
As it's so controversial
But the words of God are flawless and copyright
We can't change them
Neither the words nor the meanings
Don't ever misread and misinterprete them
Follow the words and teachings of God sincerely 
Sincerity deep in the heart and soul
Is better than 
Worshipping with ignorance  or careless interpretation
Sometimes people like to change their meanings
Because of greeds and selfishness
Until they forget 
God's words are copyright forever

Premium Member To Exist, To Live Or To Conquer

When you're born
You're at a junction 
Paths derive from this junction
Suppose you're destined to one 
You followed the path 
On the way, many sceneries welcomed you
You're fascinated
And you took the chance
To fulfil your greeds or dreams
Maybe you waited , you received
Maybe you earned , you asked
Maybe you snatched, you demolished, you conquered
The path you follow 
Whether long or short, straight or crooked
All are to the same final destination
Before you embark on the last station
You've to unload all your belongings
Which are from the previous world
After all what shall we do here now
To exist, to live or to conquer 
The existing wars and epidemics just make us wonder

Premium Member Halt, Listen and Ponder

Mankind,humanity,the human race
Please don't always listen to your own hearts
Your endless desires
Your greeds
Your ignorance
Please halt and listen to other people and other things
To the nature
Please ponder,meditate and contemplate
Your loved ones are crying out of fright and lonliness
The previous laughters are gone
The nature lovely sounds are abandoned
Halt and listen
The wind is blowing and whistling through 
Bringing along joy and hope
The stream singing happily all along the way
The clouds playing magics
The former world is full of wisdom
Please halt and listen
Stop all the anger ,disputes, quarrels
Politicking and wars
Please put a curfew to the devil of your own hearts

Premium Member A Bribery

A bribery
Can be great or small
Even sweet as the cake icings 
Enlightened as the rustles of the night worms 
Stonely silent as the night darkness 
Secret murmuring as the stars 
Unmoved and unconcerned as the bright moon 
But suspended and burdened is your own heart 
With a prolonged confrontation 
Amongst your secrets, guilts, reputations, expectations, greeds
And the truths of life 
Your choice will be your destiny

Premium Member Pollutions

Scientific productions
Man's destructions
Greeds brought them together
When encountered
They exploded
Producing debris 
Called pollutions
For the nature
And the man
And their greeds too

Premium Member Pollution

For man
He is an aggressive dictator
Even the left hand may not obey the right hand 
For years he has been violating and attacking 
The land 
The sky 
The sea 
The rivers 
The trees 
The air 
And his greeds and selfishness 
Has surpassed the debris and the ruins
That gathered and polluting the earth 
And now they are planning to move 
To another planet
