Debra Squyres Poet Rhyme

Heart In Need

A heart that feels broken 
May seem to man, lightly
But to the sole recipient
Completely and rightly

Cautious be your words
Speak not out of turn
The broken hearted hearer
Is apt to crash and burn

Instead perhaps a hug
For the one you hold dear
A shoulder lent to cry on
Your love for them made clear

A silent word of prayer
For this shattered soul do plead
Hold your judgment silent
Let the Master meet the need

Robert Johnson December 1, 2011 at 12:38 PM And so we live another day to wonder how we'll find our way. It helps to know we're not alone. As we sit waiting by the phone. A prayer, a smile, a glint of style. Will make you rise above denile. It's friendly gestures sewn in kind. That truly helps to ease the mind.
