Modesty Acrostic.

Goldfinch60



Making time to help

Others without

Demanding any reward

Ever conscious to

See the good in others

That they may go forward

Yearning for the good in us all.

          Good write Gold.
          I read a similar story.
          Woman says to Minister: 'I haven't sinned for some time now'.
          Minister: 'You must feel very proud of that'.
          Woman: 'Oh yes I do!'(And so she sins in her immodest sort of pride. Doh!).
          Not the pride of genuine appreciation, etc.

            Thanks Orchi, the Minister obviously new how to trick her.

            A good and needed acrostic on a rare word in these days of me-first. Thank you Andy.

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Fay, modesty seems to be disappearing from our world.

              You define goodwill to mankind (and animals) here and modesty rules it all.

              • Goldfinch60

                Thank you d a, goodwill to mankind and animals is well worth the pleasure that can be gained from the results.

                Hello Goldfinch60,

                What a wonderful write.

                You've captured the beauty of Modesty a beautiful quality in itself in a person.

                Keep writing
