SACRIFICE, by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: When he has more than he can eat Last Line: Because real sacrifice it meant. Alternate Author Name(s): Guest, Eddie | |||
When he has more than he can eat To feed a stranger's not a feat. When he has more than he can spend It isn't hard to give or lend. Who gives but what he'll never miss Will never know what giving is. He'll win few praises from his Lord Who does but what he can afford. The widow's mite to heaven went Because real sacrifice it meant. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOME (2) by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST IT COULDN'T BE DONE by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST LEMON PIE by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST THE MOTHER WATCH by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST A BOOST FOR MODERN METHODS by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST A BOY AT CHRISTMAS by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST A BOY'S TRIBUTE by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST |
