If I Can “If one treats those lost and in need with compassion, amazing things will start to happen.”Quote - Poets own If I can stop someone's anxiety Whilst we await safety from covid bane If I do my bit for humanity It won't be for gain or fame. If I can stop some sad tears from falling Tears of sorrow in days of emptiness Then I will have risen to my calling Bringing hope to loneliness. If I can unlock windows of one's mind To view rainbows in the sky after rain I'll believe when I leave the world behind My life hadn’t been lived in vain. 16th March 2021
