Some Poem by Francis Duggan

To help others out some go out of their way
And perform a good deed sometimes more every day
Whilst others of self only do seem to care
And of the needs of others never seem aware
Some never grow wiser only old and gray
It does take all kinds as some are known to say
Most people when young do daydream of renown
But few become famous beyond their hometown
Your idea of a successfully lived life is quite different to mine
But that's your opinion and that suits me fine
If on everything we saw fit to agree
How utterly boring indeed we would be
Some on their life journeys travel far and wide
And some do grow old in their home countryside.
