Quality

Mistake and Regret are my old friends
but I seldom carry them along.
Vanity and Ego, though not so old,
have recently bonded strong.

I tend to forget Gratitude's grant
Liberal has lost approbation.
Patience vacated my house for long
Arrogance has claimed possession.

Wish 'had nurtured Humility
been cordial with Amity,
but worst of all, how could I brawl
with a pal like Humanity.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
