Gratitude is an aptitude
Of affinity adopted
By one towards those who helped one
In one’s walks of life in some way.
Favours done to us by someone
Might invoke other’s displeasures.
To please cats is to displease rats.
To choose one is to displease others.
To show gratitude is a duty.
To give helps too is a duty.
Because pupils don’t listen,
Teachers mustn’t abandon teaching.
When compared with the efforts stuck
To the favours that were done to us,
Efforts needed to show gratitude
Will be mere a fraction of it.
Even then if we don’t show it
What is to say about ourselves?
Then the tendency to give helps
Will die and we will starve for helps.
