An Illusion

Poem of the Day:

An Illusion
by Frank C. Nelson

There's a heap o' joy in living
When we're living as we should.
And the greatest joy is giving,
Where it does the greatest good.

And we come to this conclusion,
As the more of life we see,
It is merely an illusion
When we live it selfishly!

It's the old, but truthful story,
If we strive for great success,
And we win, it lacks the glory.

If we win by selfishness,
For we find life's sweetest pleasure
When we give in fullest measure
Of the riches we have won!
