CARING NEIGHBORS
Poem by Carol Ann Wolf, as printed in the Daily Sun 4/13/24)

Caring Neighbors will appear when shadows stretch and worries thrive
The crisis came unexpectedly, knocking on the door of a person's life
These caring neighbors know the crisis is real and see the tears that hide within
So they step in and try to turn the tears into calming whispered hymns
They don't put a time limit on how long they are willing to be around
Because true empathy and compassion have endless limits and bounds
Then God's love becomes apparent, like a beautiful symphony that unfolds
A melody of caring acts, which becomes a secret story that is rarely told
So for all those who have had an experience like this, with neighbors who cared
Look up and thank the Lord, for He is the one who sent those caring neighbors there!
