In life
I have given
So much
Always been there
Giving
Constantly giving
Never
Asking for anything
For giving
Not wanting anything
For giving
Pure fulfilment
from giving
Have I given too much?
Respect lost
Why?
What, from giving? No matter what my gift is Giving; it has been worth it..
For I know. Others have gained.
What I have lost. I guess there is reason.
I must not lose
My gift
Of giving

Your heart is refined highly and the idea of always Giving fills you with untold pleasure. And for that purpose it is really good to GIVE.. I completely fall in line with your thought.! An exemplary poem, very enjoyable.!
Very moving and original poem..i like the mind talking here it came from honest relativity of soul-mind interaction..nice work lyn! _Soul
Strikes a chord... when I'm under the most intense onslaughts of the beast it's always immensely beneficial to find another in need and give them my shoulder to lean on and my ear to listen.
I revisit this poem again... and now i see how much wise you have to move your heart to keep singing even the days is always a noise and not a complementing your singing...i will learn from you a lot_Soul
An adorable piece of poetry. I loved the delightful expression of a happy and contented soul.
A great poem that briefly tells us about joy in art of giving... great heart
Lyn, giving is the biggest gift one has. Not everyone can give but the one who gives brings much happiness in many people's lives. Though it seems you are losing but when you need there will be many to offer one to you.
