Another poem~~~~
The Gift of Touch
Consider your hands and just realize
The very touch of your fingers signifies
The Love in your heart you can freely give;
A touch that may help another person to live.
Consider your eyes; do they light up when you smile?
They are the keys to your soul, do they love or beguile?
The love reflected in them can draw a lover to you,
Who will stay by your side your entire life through?
Consider your arms, are they strong; yet gentle?
Strong enough; any harmful problem to settle:
Gentle enough to sooth a child who's lost her way?
Who will decide in your loving arms she should stay?
Consider your faith, is it deep enough to serve
The Powerful Majesty of our Risen Lord?
Can you sustain your faith in the midst of the doubt
Your family must face in this strange world without?
Consider your friendship; is it tempered and true?
Can your friends consider they have a best friend in you?
Can you share all the love the Lord has given,
And draw another soul closer to heaven?
My friend, you have been blessed by the Lord Above,
He has instilled, in your heart, His Perfect Love.
The Lord has honored you so very much,
He has blessed you with~~~the gift of touch.
