Skeleton in the Closet!

We are so often wondering about what other people are thinking and doing, that we don't bother about being happy about what we have. Everyone loves to gossip about others and put them down......
Skeleton in the Closet!
Look around and what do you see,
A multitude of people, a throng;
Going about their daily chores,
Pretending there is nothing wrong.

People have this annoying habit,
Of looking and talking about others;
Never stopping for a moment to think,
That we are all sisters and brothers.

We love to poke our long noses,
And talk and gossip about everyone;
We only realize this bad habit,
When people of us make fun.

Others sorrow and despair amuse us,
A crowd gathers round an accident;
Yet no one will offer any help,
For them its a form of entertainment.

We are a race so hypocritic,
I am so ashamed to say;
We laugh n talk n pretend with friends,
While for their suffering we pray.

It is a sad thing to see,
The simplicity from culture all gone;
Cunning minds all over the place,
Tis indeed the time to mourn.

But there is a harsh truth on this earth,
And methinks everyone knows it;
But in case you haven't heard,
There is a skeleton in everyone's closet.

So while we are here in this world,
Enjoy it and make merry I say;
Don't gossip about every other person,
And ruin so many peoples day!
