Array ( [sid] => 70246 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Everything Will Be Ok [time] => 2004-11-05 09:42:43 [hometext] => Thoughts of life and children, the journey [bodytext] => “Everything Will Be Ok”

As I talk to friends throughout the day
I learn of needs by the things they say
The same holds true, I steadily find
With children and what’s on their minds

Explaining life and the journey we make,
And sharing our pain should not be a mistake
Learning to trust is hard to do,
But worth the risk, with a chosen few.

To share a smile, a tear, or regret,
To open your heart, I’d be willing to bet
There'd be much less pain, suffering and strife,
If only we cared about others in life.

God has provided a tool called love,
And from the heart and through him above,
We can provide comfort if only to hear
The suffering of others, by lending an ear.

We think nothing of sharing laughter it seems
But, what of the pain in the eye without gleam.
Or the sadness contained in an old mans voice,
To ignore him it seems has become our choice.

God has provided all these things,
Use these tools for the joy they bring.
For through these tools you'll find brighter days
And a promise that “everything will be ok.”

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. Â©
