Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

A glitch in the system
a check at the store denied
She offered me all, all she had
all she had been fingering, playing with
in the store, all the money she had
offered to me, to help me out,
in love and kindness
touching my heart, and that of her mom
because she thought of us, over herself
gave all she had
to help me, the business,
the family
out of love
a sacrifice
Lessons sinking in.
Honoring her gift
with praise and acknowledgement
that we are proud
as is her Savior
because she acted like Jesus
and we told her so
Maybe another time
in another place
she will again remember
to give, and love others
before thinking of oneself
