Make The Best Of It Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Take what you have,
And make the best of it.
To know,
If what you have had been given...
Not to earn.
The less appreciated it is!
That's a fact.
Few have never done that.

And anyone who has earned what they have,
Will know there are those...
With expectations and mouths kept closed.
Hoping to get what someone else has earned.
Then become upset when asked,
What it is they have to offer in return.
Besides wishes to get something,
For nothing done to deserve it.
