The Unsung

The people who perform good deeds every day

Unkind things of others they never do say

To help those in need of helping they regularly go out of their way

Without asking for recognition or any other form of pay

They are not the sort of people many choose to admire

Or to be like them feel any desire

To the hungry and homeless some joy they help to bring

Yet their praises you never will hear many sing

For helping to make life better for those doing it tough a huge part they do play

Yet for them you will never hear a hooray

For the good of humanity they sow the good seed

And of far more of their sort the Human World is in need

For this thing known as success and the admiration of others they never compete

And they are never seen where the big egos meet

Their names never appear on a memorial wall

Yet one can say of their achievements that they are far from small

The people who remain among the unsung

Some of them are old and some of them are young

They lead in good example on their side of the town

And their purpose in life is to help the financially down
