Give What You Can.

Goldfinch60



Gain what you can.

Save what you can.

Give what you can.

 

In this life so many just think,

Just think of themselves,

Wanting what they want

What they want in their lives,

Not caring for others.

All they want to do,

Is to gain what they can.

 

Then there are people

Who save what they can,

Save not just for themselves

But save for others in their lives,

Caring for others they know,

And even caring for others

That they do not know.

 

Then there are the people

Who give to others,

Give to others in their lives.

As there are people in this world

That struggle with their existence

And need  such help,

Need all the help they can get.

    So true. Love your neighbour as yourself. Times are getting tougher and the governments won't cope.

    • Goldfinch60

      Thank you 2781, yes governments won't cope as there is nothing in it for themselves if they help others.

      Oh nooooo! KP's on the front page of a newspaper. Not read all the story yet. Bad enough seeing her pic!

      • Goldfinch60

        Saw Carol Vorderman on the tele last night, she seems to have inherited KP's body!

        The simplicity of the language and the repetitive structure contribute to the poem's effectiveness in conveying its message clearly and directly.

              it takes two to tango but it takes all sorts to make the world go round ..

              • Goldfinch60
