A Helping Hand

For some the weight of the land will task a heavy load
A load so hand to bear

Although it may be lightened with many hands to share
Not just hands against the doughts nor floods and fires faced

But a hand upon the shoulder
With understanding placed

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

This is nice, Roger. We all need a helping hand at some point. If only for a squeeze of support:)
