Not It Envieshim His Desolation...
NOW IT ENVIES HIM
HIS DESOLATION…
March couldn’t part with its nature,
Made me give up the isolation.
Then it marched into someone else…
Somewhere, not near, far away…
And, now, envies him his desolation.

The toothless man envies those who can eat well.
I cannot think of any character below the flatterer, except he who envies him.

It s the discontented fish that envies the solely bird.

Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.

If I were reincarnated, I'd want to come back a buzzard. Nothing hates him or envies him or wants him or needs him. He is never bothered or in danger, and he can eat anything.

Two Corrupt Leaders Seize Power in Turn
He is jealous of her swindle;
she envies his looting.
The courts whip them in open
yet they rule alternately.

Charity
Charity begins at home,
Love begins in the womb,
Hope is the mind that lives at peace always.
The bud opens,
The flower blossoms,
Charity envies not;
So, let no man despise your youth and beauty.
A kiss of charity,
Like a true proverb;
Charity out of a pure heart is full of kindness.
When the Almond Tree blossoms,
Charity is full of love;
So is this muse that flows to teach many.
Let all your things be done with charity,
Charity is very kind;
Let all your dreams be with love,
Charity edifies;
And, be very wise always.
Do not let charity pass you by,
Gain your hope from your gift;
Cos', it will always lead you on.
Charity begins at home,
So compare her actions rooted in your yard;
Charity out of a pure heart is full of kindness,
So compare her acts ruling in the year;
Charity envies no one.
The love of a muse,
The love of the acts;
Charity begins at home.

The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot
(connor/carr/leach)
Hes the little boy that santa claus forgot,
And goodness knows, he didnt want a lot.
He sent a note to santa
For some soldiers and a drum,
It broke his little heart
When he found santa hadnt come.
In the street he envies all those lucky boys,
Then wanders home to last years broken toys.
Im so sorry for that laddie,
He hasnt got a daddy,
The little boy that santa claus forgot.
Spoken:
(you know, christmas comes but once a year for every girl and boy,
The laughter and the joy they find in each brand new toy.
Ill tell you of a little boy that lives across the way...
This little fellas christmas is just another day.
Hes the little boy that santa claus forgot,
And goodness knows, he didnt want a lot.)
In the street he envies all those lucky boys,
Then wanders home to last years broken toys.
Im so sorry for that laddie,
He hasnt got a daddy,
The little boy that santa claus forgot.
song performed by by Nat King Cole

The Good Ones Die Earlier
the good most often die earlier
caused by others' envies & cruelties
and those who are left behind
refuse to understand
why one as good
as this must
die instead
of them

If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears.

A wrecked ship waiting a life...
People says, am drowsy
A stasis, Future gloomy
World's given a Fire
When I Needed an Ice
Just asked for love
You thought thrice
Soft-Serene heart in Agony's, totally shocked
World's Extreme envies, heart forever rocked
Straned Aloof, alike orphan
Loneliness proofs, loves is not just fun
Yes am drowsy, a stasis, a retarded ship
A lull, before storm
dead serene
Before a thunderstorm
Years am bearing your tides
A lull swearing, a transformation belies
Fearing away my fears
Life's a great mentor be no tears
Yes am drowsy, a lull a stasis
Remember longer a wine ferments
Turns aromatic, tasteful, more redolents
Envy, hatred flooded a life
A ray of optimism, still a rife
Destiny sets me extirpated
Determined am
palm routes renacted
Your speculations, edgy comments
Puns meant, doesn't torments
Fire, fire in the heart's crust
Lava's burning, set the valcano burst
Tremor's set the world's apart
Will rock and quash the envies depart
