When I get up in the Morning*

When I get up in the morning
I am greeted with another day
I am grateful for the many choices
More than I can say

Some people in this world of ours
Suffer more than they should have to bear
Should I feel guilty because I am well
Or should my choice be to care

My actions are of one who seeks
The comforts for another
I look at all of the people in this world
As I do my sister,father,mother,and brother

I will do my best and challenge myself
To guide and direct those in need
In doing so I am hopeful to see
A little less of this world’s greed

Believe in Yourself;
