At Poets United, Mary's Vice/Versa prompt today is to use the four words HUMBLE / PROUD and ABUNDANCE / LACK in a poem. This is something I have often noted:
Those who live with
scarcity and lack,
often are humble of heart
and filled with gratitude.
In many ways,
they seem
richer in spirit
than the haughty, proud owners
of material abundance,
for whom "too much"
is often perceived as
"not enough".
