Poems by Lawrence S. Pertillar : 16477 / 16476
'Your' Gift
Do you 'still' not know what it is that you want?
Has time you limited prevented this to happen?
Do you wish what it was suddenly appeared in view?
Or have you since given up like so many you see do?
Well...
Consider this,
Many who seem they have exactly what they wish...
Have become for others unsolicited critics.
Try it.
You never know.
Someone you might get to listen,
May think of your opinion for them 'your' gift.
