“To Touch The Heart”
To touch the heart of someone dear,
though it might sometimes cause a tear;
to fall or rest upon the cheek,
‘Tis something we all should seek.
For often hearts not touched at all,
start hardening and shrinking small.
And the time it takes to grow,
a loving heart again - is slow.
For hearts expand as those who care,
extend their love and let us share.
A moment, space or special phrase,
that eases pain on dreary days.
Or simply starts our lips to smile,
and brightens time for just a while.
The ways and kinds and means of sharing,
it seems to me, are based on caring.
And though we’re often worlds apart,
you still can touch my tender heart.
You can make me smile or shed a tear,
and I’ll remember you year after year.
You touched my heart and helped me grow.
Friend, I just thought I’d tell you so.
