    Motivational and Inspirational Poems, Volume 3 - Brother Frank Morgan

    RICHES

    Many people spend their life great riches to attain

    Seemingly unaware that other riches, too, they need to gain

    Some are rich in friends who are both tried and true

    Who would never forsake one because of a different view

    Others are wealthy because of children who show great love

    Who often are like a wonderful gift sent from above

    There are those who are rich in talents and attain great fame

    Who should know that acclaim is not as important as a good name

    Many have a home rich in both love and peace

    Where ardor and concern seem to never cease

    Many women are rich in both beauty and grace

    And husbands will find them difficult to replace

    Some children are part of a family very rich in love and care

    Having parents who teach them with others always to be fair

    All people have earthly riches with which they are blest

    But the spiritual riches had by some are by far the best

    For they have great peace of both mind and heart

    Given by God to all who of His forgiveness have a part

    HONOR

    Some people are truly worthy of honor and esteem

    And quite often are found on a winning team

    Those who seek honor and respect from those they know

    Oft will find people unwilling much esteem to show

    A few are worthy of great honor and fame

    And will long be remembered by their famous name

    Children should honor loving parents who gave them birth

    And realize that good parents are of great worth

    We should honor our soldiers who gave their life, their all

    For many of them in bravery and sacrifice stood very tall

    Some people want love and respect from those they adore

    When if given, will cause them to revere them even more

    A faithful employee should sometimes be given praise

    Which also could be backed up by giving them a needed raise

    Those who are honored should not allow it to go to their head

    And show an attitude of true modesty and humility instead

    So, if you are ever able a place of honor to attain

    Be sure you never allow yourself to become haughty and vain

    PLEASURE

    Far too many people are part of a pleasure-mad throng

    Who seem to enjoy doing things they know are wrong

    Some get pleasure in making a rival feel low and blue

    Not caring whether things they tell are false or true

    Many receive pleasure each time they win a game

    Feeling sure that to lose is always a shame

    Some get pleasure in pleasing someone they love and esteem

    And look forward to the day they can become a team

    A few can receive enjoyment on the job in which they work

    And never from any of their duties would they shirk

    Strangely, some get pleasure in killing a beautiful deer

    Uncaring that to a fawn, the parent is very dear

    Many enjoy fishing or boating on a beautiful lake

    Where the problems of life they can briefly forsake

    However, the greatest happiness is found in obeying God’s word

    And voicing of joy and gladness can often be heard

    For God rewards all who His righteous laws obey

    And who from His love and care will never stray

    SPIRITUAL WARFARE

    God has a special group of people on this orb called earth

    And the only way to join is by spiritual birth

    Even children can elect to join this special throng

    By asking God’s forgiveness and forsaking all wrong

    God’s spirit invites millions to give God their life and heart

    But Satan works long and hard to keep them from God apart

    He also tempts many to give up this life so filled with peace

    Promising that he from God’s bondage will give them release

    But once they forsake God, Satan makes them his slave

    Hoping to make them serve him until they go to their grave

    God’s spirit often speaks to those who live in sin

    Never giving up hope someday their heart to win

    Satan promises to give a life full of joy and glee

    But he secretly wants them never from him to be free

    So, if you’re one of millions serving Satan today

    Be sure to seek God’s forgiveness while yet you may

    For God longs to have you in His Kingdom of love

    So your
