Something To Say

Everyone has a significant purpose;
for strangers that come our way;
we often conceal it, beneath the surface;
but, everyone has something to say.

Sometimes, we say it all with a smile;
our words may seem insignificent;
getting the hopeless to laugh for a while;
a treasure; most magnificent.

Everyone suffers from pain and sorrow;
and they need another to care;
all must have hope for a better tomorrow;
and, someone needs to be there.

Many think of caring, as an obligation;
grudgingly performing their role;
love is the very cornerstone of salvation;
the salve that heals every soul.

Many people talk; who refuse to listen;
turning those who need them, away;
God gave each, their own special mission;
even a child, has something to say.

Every soul needs love to make them new
wisdom eludes us; when will we learn;
our most vile enemy needs our love too;
whatever we give; we get in return.

There is somebody special; born every day;
a fact; most people forget.
Each one has something important to say;
and, all must have freedom, to say it!
