Loyalty Is A Rarity Poem by Franklin M Kline

Loyalty is a rarity

In this world of duplicity
Where people lie and cheat and steal
And break the bonds that once were real

Loyalty is a rarity

In this world of fragility
Where people change and drift apart
And leave behind a broken heart

Loyalty is a rarity

In this world of hostility
Where people fight and hurt and hate
And sow the seeds of anger's fate

Loyalty is a rarity

In this world of futility
Where people chase and crave and want
And never find what they have sought

But loyalty is a reality

For those who live with integrity
Who keep their word and honor them how
They stand by their friends right here and now

Loyalty is a reality

For those who live with sincerity
Who share their thoughts and feelings true
And show their love in all they do

Loyalty is a reality

For those who live with humility
Who serve their cause and help their kin
And strive to grow from deep within

Loyalty is a reality

For those who honor His Divinity
Who trust in Him and follow His Will
Enough to know and just be still

Loyalty is not a rarity

For those who live with clarity
Who know their purpose and value their soul
And make loyalty their ultimate goal.
