Give and Take

In the land of milk and honey from the givers some proudly take Not needing what they want only concerned with filling their plate The givers needs are few always happy with what they have They’re generous and truly care investing in takers then given a bath Givers are not interested with anything that they can take They want to give what little they have and share with all their slice of cake Blessed are those who give they have God’s love within their heart They will always help the takers even when it rips their world apart September 22, 2020 Givers Poetry Contest Sponsor: Regina McIntosh

You are so right. 'Givers' are blessed. True givers are always generous to help others without expectation. Nicely penned.

The heart and spirit of the giver is so beautifully expressed, Mark. Your poetic lines draw a vivid contrast between the intentions of givers and the takers. Best wishes for a win.. ~Susan
