Pause For Thought

[MajestyJo]

DO YOU JUST BELONG?

ARE YOU AN ACTIVE MEMBER,
THE KIND THAT WOULD BE MISSED
OR ARE YOU JUST CONTENTED
THAT YOUR NAME IS ON THE LIST?

DO YOU ATTEND THE MEETINGS
AND MINGLE WITH THE FLOCK?
OR DO YOU MEET IN PRIVATE
AND CRITICIZE AND KNOCK?

DO YOU TAKE AN ACTIVE PART
TO HELP THE WORK ALONG?
OR ARE YOU SATISFIED TO BE
THE KIND THAT JUST BELONGS?

DO YOU WORK ON COMMITTEES,
TO THIS THERE IS NO TRICK;
OR LEAVE THE WORK TO JUST A FEW,
AND TALK ABOUT THE CLIQUE?

PLEASE COME TO THE MEETINGS OFTEN,
AND HELP WITH HAND AND HEART.
DON'T BE JUST A MEMBER
BUT TAKE AND ACTIVE PART.

THINK THIS OVER, MEMBERS,
YOU KNOW WHAT'S RIGHT FROM WRONG.
ARE YOU AN ACTIVE MEMBER
OR DO YOU JUST BELONG?
