The Great Ones
and it just keeps on growing
yet the small ones are never knowing
what the great ones know
for the small ones never grow
in mind or heart
great lack shall keep them apart
from the great ones
a brook shows beauty
yet pales to a great waterfall
and the great ones
grow and grow and grow
while the small ones
ever know regrets and shame
while the great ones drench
in glory and fame.
and the great ones no not
that the small ones
have indeed made them great.
