Perfect Ingredient
Perfect Ingredient


We are all like sugar
Just adding on the sweetness
That you would like in life.
We are all like the salt
Just enough to give the taste.
We are all like the spice
That adds up to just
make life enjoyable,
We all like the colours
Different shades in a box
Used as and when required
To fit into the picture.
Yet we need to be just perfect
To make life living.
We need just a little sweetness
Which should not be harmful to life.
We just need to be appropriate
just as the pinch of salt
A little extra might just ruin the taste.
We need
at times to spice up
To make life easier to relish
We need to blend in as the shade
required to make life
Seem picturesque.
Too little, too much
Just a spoonful or just a stroke, pinch
Or a touch,
This is what matters most
To cook up a beautiful life
Need a bit of balancing, and a little expertise.
I want to be the ingredient that
Cooks up the most
Relishing dish called life
I want to be just the perfect add on
To make life easy to live.
I want to be just that which
Can make life meaningful live
Would you be one such ingredient
Ready to give?
