If we can find the time to listen <br />To others on what they have to say <br />If we can find the time to reach out <br />To those who are in need <br />If we can find the time to heal <br />The wounds in other’s hearts <br />What a satisfaction it will be <br />When the end of the day comes. <br /> <br /> <br />If we can find the strength to hold back <br />Words better left unsaid <br />If we can find the time to share <br />With others what we have <br />If we can find the time to make <br />More friends than foes <br />It’ll be a better world to live in <br />And God will be seen in us all.<br /><br />Lilibeth Sacmar Apat<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-only-202/
