Of Beetles and Angels - Life Lines poem

"Always Try Hard"

Our parents told us that we could do anything 
If we worked hard 
And treated others with respect

My brother helped a man find a house and a job,
Encouraged him,
And gave him money when he could,
Even though my brother
Had so little himself

My brother was determined. 
His heart had been inspired by the strength of God. 
He believed God wanted him to try "impossible" things

Of the gifts we give, 
The greatest 
Is to see beauty
In each other

Anyone of us, 
However small and helpless we may feel, 
Can spark unimagined changes
