Though many may say they suffer of low self esteem <br />Shy people are good people to me it does seem <br />As they do not advertise themselves in the Corporate World out there <br />The humble at heart are becoming more rare. <br /> <br />Shy people are people who don't drag others down <br />As many do in their great lust for renown <br />They trample on others new heights to attain <br />How low can one go for a little self gain? <br /> <br />When stories of their achievements with strangers they openly share <br />The loud mouthed types I find hard for to bear <br />But shy people you will find are not that way <br />At what they are good at they'd rather not say. <br /> <br />You loud mouthed windbag others you may impress <br />When you tell them the story of your life's success <br />And though credit should be given to where credit is due <br />The one who says little is far greater than you. <br /> <br />For them sad to say there's never an encore <br />They have little to say so them we tend to ignore <br />But I like shy people in their own quiet way <br />And when they do speak I do heed what they say.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shy-people-2/
