A gentle soul, so kind and true,
Hurts no heart in all they do.
Words and deeds, with care, they choose,
So none around them ever lose.
Their knowledge shared with modest grace,
No inferiority they trace.
Always smiling, calm, and kind,
A helping hand is what you’ll find.
Achievements they do not boast,
Possessions flaunt they never most.
Life’s hurdles faced with steady stride,
In their company, comfort we abide.
Listening ears and gentle guide,
Motivate and soothe beside.
Words are chosen with great care,
For difficult, impatient to bear.
Graceful in all situations met,
Confronting fools, they don’t regret.
Innocence of a child they keep,
Smile and laugh, though troubles steep.
Nature’s beauty they admire,
Fine tastes fuel their inner fire.
Exploitation they disdain,
Touch not what’s not theirs to gain.
Greed, anger, jealousy they control,
Lust does not consume their soul.
Promises they hold so dear,
More than life, their word sincere.
Honorable, detached from greed,
God’s custodians, they indeed.
Earn their way with honest means,
Charity flows through their routines.
Upright, just in all they do,
In family, unity they pursue.
Knowledge seekers, humble heart,
Learned claims they do not impart.
Respect for elders, love for young,
Friendly words on every tongue.
Comfort in all company,
Ordinary, fools, and wise equally.
Remembering God, they give Him praise,
For His blessings, thanks they raise.
O Lord, grant me wisdom fine,
To be this gentle soul, divine.
In life’s court, their journey done,
Faces radiant, their race well run.
