Wounds Can Heal

Thank the doctors for all they have done. It was not just the power of one. They do so much in times of need. Even help a baby that cannot feed Some children need so many things. Like time to see just what life brings. To be so young and in such need. They will get cut and then will bleed. And in the time of this great pain. The tears come down like such great rain. We all wish we could help to heal. Even take away pain that they will feel. Some so young they cannot speak. They cannot say what makes them weep We all make sacrifices for their needs. So they may grow to plant their seeds. And grow their gardens on the lands. We will know how we lent our helping hands. Like birds that learn to use their wings. They grow to learn so many things. Though we are children at heart you see. Adults we will all grow to be. Try never to lose the gift of youth. Wounds can heal and that is the truth. Written by Johnny B Raw Tin as thanks for all the help with "Tiffany Looney" liver transplant recipient

Surely "Wounds CAN heal," John, both physical wounds and emotional wounds. Healers take many forms. Some practice medicine while others offer compassion. This is a beautiful tribute to all healers! Love, Carolyn
