Remember

Empty bellies
Frost bitten hands
Shivering in the cold
Self respect stripped away
Remember the homeless this day

Life can turn a corner so swiftly - to offer a hand out that one might be lifted up - is good.  Teaching a man to fish...even better.  Well done.  Welcome to Passions!

(big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is a very compassionate debut as I too cry thinking of all the less fortunate and I send angel hugs and prayers out to them all! (sad sigh) You have a very giving heart, I love this! Welcome to Passions, sweet friend, may you be inspired by all of us here as we will all be inspired by your lovely words! I can't wait to read more of your heartfelt poetry, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I had a dream last night
you came to me on silver wings of light
I flew away with you in painted sky
Was it real
Is it what you see,touch or feel

told with tenderness...
wel all do truly need to pay more attention. To look at the facts, some of them are just us, but layed off from a company gone under and no family to fall back on. Thank you for this!
Welcome here
