Poem written- 25th June 2023
Golden are those with benevolent souls Wonderful people, blissful in their roles They've not passed exams, but offer their all In favours they do, whatever the call. The elderly lady, who's lame of limb For the needy she brings groceries in She's knocking on their doors day after day For to check that her neighbours are ok. She does not ask for any gratitude Helping others brings her beatitude All she could ask for is to be sure that They're safe, joyful and cared for, that's a fact. Golden oldies, that's including men too To pay everyone their own rightful due They’ve a gentle heart and a gentle hand A hand to hold, a heart to understand. A caring man close to my heart and home Wouldn't wish anyone sat hungry alone He cooked for two sweet dears on Christmas Day Such deeds touch hearts in a delightful way. Smiles, a helping hand or lending an ear Gifts someone magic each day of the year.
