#putothersfirst
It seems you're holdin' on dear life,
as tears come down in streets & strife
as poachers stab a plunging knife,
Never turn a trusting back
in your world the angry hack
nothing done or what you lack,
rope is there, pick up the slack,
climb away from their attack,
You need to find a piece of HOPE,
a hand to help & hold the rope,
as fingers reach to steal & *****
I am hear for you, I'm here right now,
I HOPE these words will help somehow,
hope can fade but this I vow,
The sun will shine again tomorrow
amidst the trials and the sorrow
pay it forward, time we borrow
I hear you poet, I truly do
I'm right there, beside you too,
shining light on grey skies new,
wipe away & they turn blue,
hold a hand & will undo,
Your beauty shining from within,
take away your thoughts of sin,
dig below the surface skin,
I promise we are new again,
Take that hand & take good care
in your pain & we all share
kindness something I can spare,
take a chance
& help to dare,
life if just not always fair
but this to you, I say & swear
never more than we can bare,
when you feel as if you'll tear
Part your load I already carry
so rest your head & don't be wary,
when roads ahead they seems so scary,
one day again you smile merry,
your soul & spirit feeling airy,
This is just a wicked test,
before your heart can have a rest,
for you dear one, I hope the best.
an onward journey, onward quest,
I hope the heavens, yours have blessed,
& shine a brilliant idea of hope
the Angels favorite kind of dope
don't let go of that sweet rope,
apply a healthy healing dose,
draw in the Dr really close,
this injection won't be gross,
if a syringe,
please don't cringe,
or have a twinge,
hope it's something you can binge,
It's not a drug,
just sending hugs,
I pray, & say
keep trying today,
the sun it stepped away,
Hope it will bring a little relief
I know in my heart
& in my belief
if you try & don't give up
you will have a bit of luck,
It will come in the form of words
a pen of HOPE I know is heard,
seems the Heavens they concur,
in a method they prefer,
digging in a needed spur,
My God, your God
they are the same,
doesn't matter what the name,
love as one & never blame,
raise a voice, inviting change,
I am here & write of you,
a hope that rhymes they will undo,
or provide a little needed glue,
know that others love you too,
this is something you CAN do
Whatever you believe,
bring a rest dear God,
in your light I pray we're awed,
whoever you are, wherever you are,
I wished upon the waiting stars
erasing deep & painful scars,
Adding bandages & soothing cream
sleep at night, a chance to dream,
finally see a light that beams,
shining brilliantly,
stunning beauty,
loving all is a duty,
an overwhelming love
that comes from above
Hey you gotta friend
who is there until the bitter end,
I know in this you can depend
& in this message that I send,
Send much love & best wishes
just a few hands blew kisses,
send you all my favorite dishes,
bring comfort and some
key ingredients,
to a weary & tired
seekers heart today ❤
