"A Course In Greatness"

by Shane D. Moore - Sagittarius

Where is greatness found ?
Who can the word define ?
By our conscience we are bound,
To have our hearts refined,
Greatness is not found in the proud,
It is surely not high,
Greatness has a lowly sound,
It’s virtues you cannot buy,
Greatness is found amid a need,
For tender loving care,
Gently, mildly taking the lead,
And help the weak to bear,
Greatness is found in low of heart,
In the meek, the mild and caring,
Forsaking self and taking part,
With those whose love you are sharing.
