Humility Nowadays

That it used to be popular happens to be so But going back the Seasons this seems long ago Most things in life never does seem to last Humility nowadays is a thing of the past Promotion of self it is now an in thing So many their own praises only too willing to sing Suppose to their warped sense ofhigher self they are only being true Though their sort seldom give credit to where it is due Are these the people we ought to admire Who of singing their own praises never seem to tire They like to tell others of how marvellous they are Of how on the corporate ladder they have climbed far Give me the person who does not compete With others for the title of best of the street Nowadays the humble are so very few And this is not saying anything that is new It is a sad thing for to have to say That the humble are overlooked in the Human World of today Of those into promotion of self far too many indeed And of more of the down to earth sort we are of in need.
