More Important Things in Life 😇

More Important Things in Life 😇

A Poem by Darren K. Jackson
"

Live😀, Laugh😂, Love😍, Life😇"

"
Living your life for each day,
and loving one another
Laughing along the way,
and loving our sisters and brothers

Praying when we are unable to give,
and helping others when we can
Reaching out our hands to help,
and giving help to our fellow man

It's better to give than to receive,
that's what has always been said
Always follow what your heart says,
and not always with your head

No one person is better than the other,
as we all have struggles, trials, and scars
There are more important things in life,
than big houses, status or fancy cars

These will mean nothing,
when we are all dead and gone
It's how that we treated others,
while living that will forever live on

Whenever I see your posts, I know that I will be uplifted by it and, perhaps, inspired to reply in poetry. Get set, brother, cos here it comes:


The best things in life are free;
I've heard the words before.
The funny part, if you ask me,
Is that they're not said more.

Not only love, and breath, and life
Are gifts that have no cost;
For also Jesus' sacrifice,
to benefit the lost.

He died so that we all can live
Whoever will receive
The gift of life that He does give
To all who but believe.
