A Love Outreach

How much does it take
To comfort someone?
Let us not forsake
The good that should be done.

Does it take long
To cheer another soul?
To share with them a song
Which attempts to console?

A smile is so warm
To a cold, lonely heart;
It has a special charm
For hearts torn apart.

Take a moment ----- look around;
Who looks sad and distressed?
Who seems tired and bound
And in dire need of rest?

A minute of our time
Spent with one another,
Is precious and sublime
To a grief-stricken brother.

Let us learn compassion
And reach out to show we care.
Let’s dispel the rejection
That is Oh! - so hard to bear!
