The Good People

They are the people that always hear your call The people that are there in times of great despair Simple, sincere, no nonsense, no drama kind of people The people who care about the survival of others Who give generously of themselves, when times are tough They are not the haters, the killers who with guns go berserk They are the angels of life who deeds overcome the bad Folks who suddenly make you feel good about the world Instead of making us think, we are all living in some sort of hell People who give of their time, their love and their dedication Offering comfort in times of many terrible unforeseen disasters A comforting word, a box of food, some clothing, refuge, a hug Hands that reach out to hold a crying child, a blanket given Doors opened to shelter and protection in the dark bleak night A warm smile and suddenly a feeling that all is not utterly lost Hope given, with a tender heart and such all encompassing love Oh yes this is what is good, in this so very crazy mixed up world Let us all reflect on it, and gives thanks for all the beautiful ones The unknown strangers there in times of our own desperate need.
