Panagiota Romios Poet Couplet

Envy Lake

God gives each of us talents, as shining as the sun.
If we do not use them, how sad as lose them, these very ones!

No, talents are not equal and that's what makes it fun!
From a Renoir painting to a child's fingerprints, all sparkle with the
the holy, hands of God.

All these gifts take both practice and take time.
And both you and God, smile when done, and you can truly say,
"it's mine!"

Don't ever down another, and proclaim their win,is some mistake!
You are just a meager human, throwing God's choice in Envy Lake!
