“Pay it forward” – there’s a phrase –
Don’t know if I’ve done it:
If there is a goodness badge,
I don’t think I’ve won it.
I was kind once, I remember –
Seems like it was yesterday;
Although, I think I was seven.
See, the kid around the way
Wanted to play hockey with us.
So I told him, “hey, come play!”
And so, I was kind of kind once,
And perhaps, I should essay
To be more kind now I’m older.
Many have been kind to me;
So I guess, I’ll pay it forward,
You all have
My guarantee
I was a Little Sister once,
and benefited greatly from that time;
so I became a Big in turn,
an experience quite sublime.
So glad was I to be a Big,
I did it once again;
in passing on the favor,
becoming a better sister,
and friend.
To do some good
Is really grand
For those who you
Can understand
Because you know
The way they feel;
Big Sisters, Brothers —
Wow.
That’s
Real
