Steve,
your words echo the sentiments that so often run in my mind. there is so much we can do, but finally, most of us are content to be wrapped in that little cocoon we build around us.

thank you very, very much for your wonderful comments and nice words. There is so much I am learning from this site and experienced poets like you.

I did make the correction in the 6th line - i think this site has a inbuilt typo error for the apostrophe.

thanks and take care

best regards

You are so right, each of us can make a difference in the lives of others and more importantly each of us should. You have written a beautiful mantra on living better and helping those who need us. Beautiful poem.

Steve... So true! It's amazing what a difference it maked even if we only do something small, every little helps!! A beautiful poem my friend, many people should read this!
