WHO IS MY NEIGHBOR? By Joseph C. Ogbu (JoeNwaOgbu)




Never shall it be taken as a big labor
Asking who is my neighbor
Finding where is my neighbor
And offering an unknown a harbor
So to have a rest and enjoy a true tabor.

Yes! The world within and outside me are my neighbors
The suffering and orphans are my neighbors
The wounded and less privileged are my neighbors
The rich and poor are equally my neighbors
Yes! The weak and strong are also my neighbors.

Knowing my neighbors gives life to our generation
Loving my neighbors offers light to every nation
Welcoming my neighbors grants love a completion
Caring and paying heed to  my neighbors gives life a new edition
Which will make all to enjoy the beauty resting on the creation.
May God grant us grace to identify and  truly love our neighbors!
