For Love
It all seemed so easy, to give without thought,
the care for our loved ones the way we were taught.
A warm close embrace, a touch of the hand,
no matter the problems we would  understand.
Yet sometimes at night when alone and afraid
we wonder if maybe decisions we made
were right or perhaps they werenât always the best,
you suddenly feel a great ache in your chest.
To face things alone, all the joys and the tears,
to keep on just smiling through all of the years,
and just for a while in the silence you cry
and wonder with sadness if you should still try.
Yet just as you think that you face things alone
a gentle voice whispers âyouâre not on your ownâ
This voice thatâs so soft and with gentlest of touch
will remind you of why you still care oh so much.
An angel of sorts in its wings you enfold
unloading this cumbersome burden you hold.
Uplifted and lighter in spirit you feel
there now is no problem with which you canât deal.
The help you are given is sent from above,
reminding you that what you do⌠is for love.

May I be the first to respond to a wonderful poem! You have captured an instance of divine help through the Holy Ghost, "the still small voice" Thank you for sharing your experience in beautiful expression!.....Jim
Thank you for that Jim. In this present, turbulent world we can often forget about God and feel that he has moved away from us..but it is not Him that has moved ...but us..and sometimes, unexpectedly, He will let us know that He is right there, beside us, supporting us and as always ..loving us. Thank you for your kind words Jim and stay safe, stay well and always keep close to the light of God..He will light the path that has started to grow so dark for us.

Hi LODIGIANA!,
I agree wholeheartedly with STEVIE here.....this DOES express the idea that we all do need that assuredness that we are not alone...especially it difficult times.....it IS expressed BEAUTIFULLY here with a perfectly adhered to rhyme scheme and wonderful word choices!!......ALL STARS!! & PINNED!!.....well done dear poet sister!!.......LOVE & ROCKETS!!........T xo : )
Hi Tony! how lovely to hear from you and as always with such beautifully expressed views..It's during the tough times that we either crumble or find a hidden strength..and for me that has always been spiritual..but I will admit that sometimes, particularly when you see and hear terrible things happening, it is difficult- I have always considered you to be the perfect example of calm sagacity despite knowing the many health trials you have faced and dealt with...we all need a good dose of 'Tony talk' occasionally to keep us motivated. Thank you for your words and as always stay safe and stay well.
