The Golden Rule by Debi Pick Marquette



What God truly wants us to know

What so many learned long ago 

 Experience, from home or school 

Most all were taught the Golden Rule



I'll treat you just how I want to

Be treated in return by you

To hurt someone by ridicule

Is not part of the Golden Rule



To talk behind somebody's back

Is like a mean school girl attack  

So if you feel this makes you cool

Not practicing the Golden Rule



Don't pick on someone just to flaunt

A condescending dig or taunt

Sarcasm's given by a fool

Does not fit in the Golden Rule



Last month we heard a friend had died

She had committed suicide

Abusive spouse treated her cruel

We wished he'd known the Golden Rule



God's love, forgiveness and respect 

Good manners we should all expect

Kindness is always the right tool

To follow the great Golden Rule
