Not Everybody Poem by Francis Duggan

Not everybody you meet will see you as okay
And not everybody you know kind things of you will say
Some like some better than others that is our human way
Though even to those we do not like respect we ought to pay.

Our difference that make us interesting how boring we all would be
If everybody in the World thought exactly like me
Variety is the spice of life those words seem ever true
And as different as chalk and cheese applies to me and you.

Not everybody you get to know will want to be your friend
Whilst others they will stick by you right till the very end
We all have our likes and dislikes and no two quite the same
But one thing in common most of us share is our lust for wealth and fame.

Not everybody you get to know will enjoy your company
Yet we can sort out our differences without disharmony
Even amongst brothers and sisters different personalities to be found
But all good living people they do share some common ground.
