Shining Brighter Everyday Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Shining Brighter Everyday

Rating: 5.0


As long as you are 'real'
With a sense of 'self' and identity...
Don't worry about those that aren't!
They have enough problems today,
Trying to maintain what they've gained
Through false pretenses,
Shared with turned up noses!
And that for them has to be difficult...
Since the 'realities' they have lived,
Seem to be attracting more flies than honey these days!
And for you to be as genuine as you are...
You are shining brighter everyday!
Walk away.
With pride and dignity intact!

This should be handed out to every 6th,7th, and 8th grader in this country...well actually, we all should have it on our refrigerators.....So positive and reassuring that it's 'what inside' that counts, NOT what you've got or WHO you are or might once have been...........BRAVO LAWRENCE~~~~~~~marci.xo~~~~~~ :)
