Less Conscious Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Living to give the best of myself.
Is not my decision to choose.
From a list of attitudes.
I respect to not expect this returned.
Being blessed to accept this,
Had been the first lesson I learned.
And I don't take what God has given to me,
For granted.
Or perceive that others,
Are aware of who or what it is...
That gives and takes away,
Whatever they have been given.
To believe they can not show or express,
Appreciation.
God bless those less conscious.
