To Comfort Others
~ By Sue ~

In tragedies times
We all come together, now
With a helping hand
To give comfort to others
Until life can be better

Yes, Dearest Sue.

Your tanka is a comforting and compassionate write.

May we all lend a hand ~ and a shoulder...

Yes, we are always there to help comfort our fellow man.
Excellent write Sue.

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

Sue,
Until then...

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Thank you all for reading and replying. My heart hurts when I think of all those poor people affected by Katrina.

I love your heart's motion, dear Sue.

To comfort others with a touch of love, yes, may this always be our priority.
