Hope

 
What is this world so full of vice?

Everything bad except things which are nice.

Things like anger, jealousy and greed,

Things like hatred, which should never breed.

But still there is something known as hope.

This is the only thing on which we can hope.

So let us not waste our lives as gutter

But do our best and hope for the better.
