Realize


So many people don't realize,

the affect they have on so many lives.

A smile, a wave, a sign they care,

that's all they really have to share.

Say "Hello", or take time to talk,

for those so many people at whom everyone must gawk .

They all march on the same dark road that we all must take,

we all have delt with our own blows of fate.

 

 We must all remember to show we care

about our fellow humans everywhere.

These little things, a smile, a wave, 

can save so many lives, that's all it takes.

Hunger, fixed with a shared bite to eat;

Education, permitted by the gift of a seat.

 

We must remember we are all the same, 

we must all play through the same rough game.

Share your love and your care

and it may save someone in dispair,

for sometimes all they need

is someone to care.
