The sun scorched my face
As I mowed a friend's lawn
I must of felt in place
I really didn't feel like a pawn
I had an unselfish motive
It was to be of help
I knew she wasn't able to
So I mowed the green grass
And my selfish side was at
Peace at last for the time being
I thought of someone else for today
And my selfishness went away
My selfishness that has me down
But for today it isn't so noticeable
And it put a smile on my face
Knowing I was of service today
