Beautiful Character

by Wendy G

Acrostic Poetry Contest Winner 

          Character of Love

Concerned and caring for each other
Hardworking and helpful to a needy brother
Always looking out for neighbours in need
Reflecting life values in word and deed
Affected by loss and their grief profound
Crushed and heart-broken, but won't be kept down
Thankful and grateful to begin yet again
Endurance and courage despite their pain
Respect to them all has become my refrain.
 
Overwhelmed … but clinging to personal pride,
Friendship supports others in life's hard ride
 
Losing possessions – well they're just things
Only caring for others is what really brings
Value and meaning to all that life offers
Each moment of time puts gold in their coffers.
