Great!

 
“Great”
 
Seems where ’ere masses gather---“Birds of a feather”
Narcissus “celebrity” abounds among self-Love together
 
Boisterous “Royal! Elite!” Politico becomes first choice
Humble “True Hero” do “Good” anonymous stilled voice
 
“Great” commons wraithlike brush softly through humanity
Strident Kings and Lords attentions confess near-“insanity”
 
My way! Or, No way!” Commands some mighty leader
Thy will be done!” Oft prays any humble servant greeter
 
Through history the truly “Great” are well-remembered kind
Jefferson, Jackson, “Teddy”, JFK, and Reagan: A treasure find
 
With: Mother Theresa, moms and dads along with humble others
Quietly, they shine gold-sun delight while “Goodness” further
 
Stands tall a 1500’s saintly-man name of Sir Thomas Moore
Challenged head-to-head some “King” to trump faux score
 
“My allegiance to yon king, but only after my true---God! In heaven”
King “what’s-his-name” blasphemed God in search of lucky “seven”
 
Enlisted Lord Cromwell treachery to secure Sir Tom should lose his head
In Faith! Moore died; Five years fate found the Lord also “un”-joined dead
 
Might wonder humble I: Which soul be white? The other surely black!
Saint Thomas’ halo golden glows; demon-Cromwell only a devil’s hack
 
“Innocent” upset parent precise-plan caused anger-strife as progeny happy smiled
Pre-chosen school, career, spouse; missed space of beautiful blameless grandchild
 
Choose careful-wise; Love! Be not a limited commodity measured
Rather, sacred spread abundantly as eternally replenished treasured
 
Stand humble I with Sir Thomas saint, send love the world around
Praise! Honor! Glory! Judgment Day! Pray it be I which He astound
 
Born within the thought-inception sown be fertile seed “Hope” germination
Nurture well through “tender love” for final harvest: “Great!” determination
 
Amen!
