For focus on the good which comes
Will bring still more, if only crumbs
And many crumbs create a cake
You'll see it if you're still awake
Don't be too quick to scoff and sniff
For pride is teetering on a cliff
And should you fall, then what a drop!
You'll look back wishing you'd learned to stop
And count the blessings, no matter how small
For gratitude's needed by us all
