Special Gift

everyone has a special gift
a talent given to them by God
and it's up to each of us to find it
and then take it to heart
you might be athletic or smart at the books
you might be artistic or possess stunning good looks
you might be a writer or be good at giving a speech
but whatever gift that you've been given it's up to you to seek
so don't be jealous nor envious because of what somebody else has 
just develop your own special gift and then take it to task
