You Can Only Live To Be Good As You Can Poem by Francis Duggan

You can only live to be good as you can
For to be a good woman or to be a good man
And do unto others as you'd like them do unto you
To live as a good person is all you can do.

I am one who on Karma does firmly believe
And in life it is true what we sow we receive
What goes around comes around some like to say
When referring to Karma since that is Karma's way

Of dealing with us in the way that we live
What we receive from life is to life what we give
If for your crimes or your sins to the law you don't pay
Then Karma will catch up with you in some future day.

You may not be a celebrity on your side of the town
But you are kind to others never put anyone down
And to the spirit of live and let live you are true
Happiness and good fortune in life you are due.
