GIVING BACK

 
 
 

 Nature gives us gifts everyday

 A winter sunset reflects many

 Colors over the southern waters

 Of the beautiful Inland Sea

 Leaving us in awe of the almighty

 Who gives us many opportunities

 We may help others in need

 Often we ignore the situation

 Because we are too busy

 Looking after our own interests

 There could easily be a time

 When we are in the position

 Of needing help --- always expecting

 That our needs will be met

 What if they are not --- then

 What do we do?  Cry out to

 The creator who could easily

 Say where were you when

 Help was needed by others

 We must learn to be generous

 Giving of ourselves and our gifts

 Empties us so that we may

 Be filled again.  It is

 Gratifying, just like the sunsets,

 The stars at night, moon rises

 And sunrises.  We are alive

 We have no regrets

 Our path is safe.  It is up to us

 To make it well worn
