Avoid a Mad Rush

This is my seventh alphabet ( abecedarian ) poem. The current age is full of cut throat competition, and guys are much overburdened with pressure of curving out a special and remarkable niche for themselves. Getting ahead of everyone is not a bad idea. But if such attitude makes one a maniac and a depressed guy, it is useless. After all, life is for living and not for frittering away in constant tension. This tiny poem speaks about a contented, balanced, and calm life which avoids " zilch "( a thing of no importance ). Besides zilch, I have included a word " Xenobiotic " ( something foreign to body ).

Avoid a Mad Rush

Awesome beautiful
Calm demeanour
Ebullient fortunate gait
Having independent
Joyous kind loving
Moments
No overbearing
presumptions
Quietly relishing
Serene tracks
Utopian virulent worries
Xenobiotic yearning
Zilch

Thank you Ruby for your generous comments. I 'm pleased that you liked this poem. I find my way up to letter "w" but for appropriate words beginning with letters x, y, and z, I have to look them up in a dictionery or other sources. Doing all this for creating a meaningful poem is really a great fun.

Glad you liked this alphabet poem Eric. Thanks for you kind visit and generous comments. I really enjoy creating such short poems. It is so much fun.

Such a great notion. For some reason I just did not notice the "abecedarian" nature on first reading it just seemed to float in reflection. So i reread with the style in mind. You get an A+ in both areas. I do some writing in some areas where someones lifestyle is in jeopardy and the other writer wants to take that away -- pure competition.

Great message you conveyed, Harish.

Looking up is such a long road to pursuit which doesn't get you anywhere.
