Jealousy is Many Words

by Debi Pick Marquette

One Word: Jealousy Contest Winner

Jealousy is evil, and is more than just one word
There's so many emotions that will follow
It can be vindictive, and the truth is often blurred
The crushed soul of the innocent turns hollow.

Why is it so easy to repeat the very worst?
This person may have so much on their plate
Jealousy can also mean you're needing to be first

Do not discourage anyone's good fate

Lee, once known for kindness, made an innocent mistake
A co-worker told lies, so she'd look bad.
Others heard the lies and wouldn't give poor Lee a break
Now Lee can't find the soft heart she once had.

The person who you envy, just may have it worse than you

Be careful with the message that you send
Instead of wanting what is hers, share part of yourself too
Don't ever miss the chance to be a friend!
