Eve Roper Poet Free verse

If I Were Famous

if I were famous
I would be humble
spiritual bless
might sometimes stumble
but never crumble 
all glory is His
I have to be true
to myself, I do.

are we not all famous
for all our accounts
in society, treating all with respect 
all takes a lot of hard work

it's a great responsibility 
to others and ourselves

Sara Kendrick February 25, 2021 at 3:07 AM Sometimes people are only famous to their family and a few friends but they are still famous. Attitude is the most important thing and some people have such wonderful attitudes toward life. Thanks for dropping by my page. Sara

Victor Buhagiar February 18, 2021 at 10:58 PM Most famous people are famous for the wrong reasons. Which is why I discard all the printed media. A pertinent poem. ~~

Andrea Dietrich February 18, 2021 at 2:06 PM I really like how you reacted to that question. Famous people who REMEMBER where they came from and don't get uppity. They are the best!

L Milton Hankins February 18, 2021 at 12:36 PM Good work, Eve. I think you've hit the nail on the head! It's most important of all to "be humble" in all of life's circumstances.
