Eyes, tired but ever watching < !signature-->Feet, sore keeping on walking Ears, echoing still listening Hands, worn, gently caressing Lips, dry and thirsty Stomach, rumbling, so hungry Shoulders, carrying many Knees, sitting plenty You look drawn and weary But you keep on working You need to sleep But you rather soothe the needy You look older than you are But your gentleness shines Why wont you rest? Please, have something to eat Why do you give others what we give you? Please have something to drink Why don't you get angry at those who hurt you? Please do not hurt yourself Why do you love us so much? Please Father just for a moment Let your children take care of you. [This message has been edited by Daniel J D (edited 10-13-2000).] |

Irish Rose, They say His work is never done. I suppose that is so true when considering the sadness of the West Bank. Years of His work has been ondone by society's ills. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |
