Putting Self Last Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Living an honest life, not cheating or taking what doesn't
belong to me, always trying to do the best for others, put-
ting self last.

Hoping to make a difference in the lives of other people,
splashing an attitude of positivism everywhere I go in
this temporary life.

Living in a silent solitude where God is a sole companion,
moving forward on the path of destiny, fate holding hands
with mind and intellect.

A joyous way of living this difficult life of sacrifice
and hardship, looking towards a final sunsetical horizon
with peace held deeply within this mere poetical being
here on earth.
