To touch the heart of someone dear,
Though it might sometimes cause a tear.
Two or more to fall upon the cheek,
Should be something all should seek.
................................
For often hearts not touched at all,
Start hardening and shrinking small.
And then the time it takes to grow,
a loving heart is very slow.
............................
For hearts expand as those who care,
Extend their love and let us share.
A moment space or special phrase,
That eases the pain on dreary days.
..........................
Or simply starts our lips to smile,
And brightens time for just a while.
And though were often miles apart,
You still can touch my very heart.
...............................
You make me smile or shed a tear,
And I'll remember year to year.
Just how your touching helped me grow.
And I thought I'd just tell you so.
