Improvement is not born out of Envy
It's nurtured by the desire to be the best-
A striving for Perfection, be it slowly
Learning well from a challenge or a test.
Some people who vainly try to pretend
They are what they think is a 'poet',
Embarass themselves with the message that they send
Wrong sentences, predicates and subjects.
For the world is not made up of idiots
A majority of us can see the whole truth!
Evidence on the page which they can't refute
A tragic tale where Pride alone is their fruit.
Study and due practice is a matter of Choice
That is not worn like a cloak in an instant,
Excellence can come if one cares to heed its voice
Then the writing becomes a gem and the thought, not vacant.
