How Good We Have It Poem by Hebert Logerie

We don't know how good
We have it, my dear friends
We never know how good
We have it; helping hands
Are very important for today
And tomorrow. Never walk away
From good friends. There's a way
To solve all types of problems
And never look for excuses or blames.

We never know how good
We have it, beloved friends
We have good health, food
At our disposal and blends
Of opportunities and moneys
Yet, we take many things for granted
We need to get on our knees
To glorify the Great Almighty One
And stop being down or disenchanted
We're here to learn daily a new lesson.

Be appreciative and enjoy what we have
Watch how we behave. The tiny valve
Is as important as the humongous one
Each plays a special and crucial function
We don't know how good
We have it in our neighborhood.
