Too Much Praise

For their physical beauty people are greatly valued but having said this so are prize winning sheep
There is a truism about physical beauty that it is something that is only skin deep
Most people wealthy and famous for their physical beauty in many ways are not nice people at all
Lacking in kindness, compassion and selflessness one may say of them on their ways quite small
Hard to blame them if they are egotistical since so many people their praises do sing
Too much praise does not give rise to humility as it can be quite an ego inflating thing
In the wealthy suburbs of any town or city selfless sort of people are quite hard to find
Among the wealthy, celebrated and famous not many of the caring and compassionate kind
In a Human World where for one to be a big winner many sad to say are destined to lose
One truism that remains about losing is it is something anyone does not choose
You will not hear of many wealthy celebrities volunteering their money and time where poor people dwell
Only the very best of good and caring people devote their time to those in Earthly Hell
Too much praise it is not good for the ego admiration can go to the admired one's head
In the minds of the egotistical the self only matter and humility sad to say is truly dead.
