[bodytext] => The Broken Hearted ~~~~ My heart bleeds for the broken hearted The many whom life has dealt a difficult hand The ones who struggle on their own Without a leg to stand No security net to catch their fall No rainy day back-up plan to help How they will make it through the year Is surely in some doubt No good neighbor to offer a hand No guardian angel to watch their back Yet courage and determination Is nothing that they lack Though courage doesn’t pay the bills And determination doesn’t supply the meal Struggling becomes a way of life Yet emptiness isn’t what they feel I meet a lovely woman today Who could teach me a thing or two About appreciating what you have Even when it’s few The gleam in her eyes Outshone the roughness of her hands As she asked for a job In terms I could understand Qualified she wasn’t But determined even still Her honesty and assertiveness For the position could fill the bill I decided to take a chance Her situation warranted the try The woman needed the money How could I just sit by? I hope she works out fine In my gut I think she will When actions speak louder than words It can change the way one feels I didn’t hire her out of pity Though my heart for her did break I was impressed by her spirit To do whatever it takes She wasn’t seeking a handout She wasn’t expecting to be kept She was just looking for someone To help her take the next step I wish her all the best I hope this relationship become a fruitful one Isn’t that what it’s all about?

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. ©
