[bodytext] => In the spirit of friendship, I give you my unconditional love When your heart hurts mine hurts for you When tears fall from your eyes, My heart weeps Empathy is what the Golden rule is all about For when we put ourselves in someone else’s shoes We know what they need Our shoes have traveled similar paths Leaving footprints not meant to be left by lonely travelers They’ve stood at home plate swinging at life’s curve balls Sometimes they’ve struck out; some times they’ve hit home runs And every now and again….. They’ve trotted the bases of life after nailing a grand slam Those curveballs teach us the lessons we are to know From my heart to yours, I know how to ease your pain Just take me up on my offers I expect nothing in return other than a flicker of hope that your eyes might smile and show some way, way, way over due relief I want to help you ease this almost unbearable pain, not intended for you alone But for me to share with you, as you have unconditionally shared with me We offer much more comfort when we can give what we needed, when we needed We offer much more comfort when we give the same unconditional love that helped us stay on our paths Those footprints I have mentioned leave the lessons of life on our hearts and souls Lessons meant to be shared, not kept locked up selfishly The world’s ever-changing and not in a good way There are more hurting people in the world than ever Just being there for one person can have a domino effect So, in essence, one person can leave an unforgettable footprint on the world The one thing I want to tell you that the further you fall…. The higher you will bounce I promise you If you remember nothing else, remember… At this moment in time you are leaving one set of footprints in the sand Remember, this is when God is carrying You in His loving arms © 2004 Chanda Thomas [comments] => 2 [counter] => 169 [topic] => 11 [informant] => ChandaPanda [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 14 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
