Perhaps you cannot boast of battles fought and won <br />But as long as you never have harmed anyone <br />And to your higher self you remain ever true <br />Then only good karma in life you are due <br />Material things never prove of the person you are <br />Not everyone can drive in a brand new car <br />Not everyone can become a millionaire <br />Though truly good people have never been rare <br />Your name may never be written on the wall of fame <br />And you may never have huge sums of money to your name <br />But you have a generous spirit and to others you are kind <br />And better than you are would be hard to find <br />You may not be one others do celebrate <br />But by your good deeds good karma you create.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/perhaps-you-cannot-boast/
