Family of Friends

Families walking in the halls Searching for comfort within these walls Many times we've heard things said Discussing things so many dread Children with an illness are here Seeking comfort to calm their fear Sometimes their treatments are very painful For days that are easier, we are thankful As time passes and each day goes by We find ourselves asking "Why?" We're not alone in this place we must stay We can trust in our faith and begin to pray Coming together as a "Family of Friends" With a shoulder to cry on and an ear to bend Strength in numbers may conquer some pain Share our hearts when they begin to rain Here for our children with hope for healing Let's share the pain we are often feeling Let's join together as a "Family of Friends" Let's show our support and lend a hand Copyright © 2004 Shari E Davis
