The Lord has given us plentiful

Let us then lead a life meaningful

The blessings that we cherish

And the favours that we relish

Never we want to lose their sight

Since they bring us such delight

Let us share the pleasures of life

So that others can enjoy in strife

Our trash can be someone’s treasure

Somebody’s need beyond measure

Surplus items let’s also give away

No use they are to us dare I say

Books, crockery, medicines and rags

Clothes, stationery, purses and bags

Furniture, cushions, curtains, shoes

Why stack them, deprive others of use

Blessings of God we must share

Benefit from them with caution 'n care

So much can be recycled n reclaimed

Put to use, reshaped and regained

Surely all this is noble, worth a try

Small acts of kindness to live by
