When faced with trials Of faith in fellow man Think to yourself . . . They are as I am Their heart feels sorrow Their soul seeks meat Their eyes cry tears They’ve experienced defeats They long to laugh To know true happiness To move beyond suffering To experience bliss If you can but step A moment into their shoes You’ll understand much You’ve nothing to lose So step on over and look See what it is their eyes see Then step back into place And you’ll learn how to be Compassionate For we all walk the same s.a.t. Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

What a wonderful message you've given in your words. How fitting is the title to this poem, Give Yourself A Gift, for that is excatly what the reader does in reading your words. Thank you for the gift in rhyme |
