You are made a debtor

If someone praises you,
You've to find words for him.
If someone pleases you,
You've to find gifts for him.
If someone shows you love,
You've to find heart for her.
They make you a debtor

ken d williams The PoetBay support member heart!
It is said '' it's better to give than it is to take '' ,
But some times you have to take , by taking you,
Are giving , a child may offer you a penny , when,
You are broke , the child knows by hearing the grown,
Up's taking tho the child is so small and silant , no one ,
Noterses , the child who is all ears, by takeing the penny,
The child feils the child is helping,
You help an old man of 80 plus, parsherly sighted, he offers you a quid,
You refuse , the old man's downcast , rejected,
So you realise you must except ,
You know he cant spear the money , so, to safe face ,
You bye him a cheace roll , next time you call , and each time,
You call, houner keeped by both
A classic case,Of ''to take, yet give''.

Thank you Shangmgam , fore such a thoughtful poem , as you can see made me think.
