It Shows in Your Face

You don't have to tell how you live each day;
You don't have to say if you work or you play;
A tried, true barometer serves in the place --
However you live, it will show in your face.

The false, the deceit that you bear in your heart,
Will not stay inside where it first got a start;
For sinew and blood are a thin veil of lace --
What you wear in your heart, you wear in your face.

If your life is selfless, if for others you live,
For not what you get, but how much you can give;
If you live close to God in his infinite grace --
You don't have to tell it, it shows in your face.

Big words From a Big hearted guy... Who just so happens to be Big too by the way... ;)

Maybe you should try writing your own stuff sir? Remember the first step to being a good writer is to start writing... ;D

Hope to see good stuff from you soon sir... ;P

i dont consider myself much of a writer but you'll find my feeble attempts at writing scattered among these classics. :)
