Would you say you were fine <br />To say Good day, To take the time <br />To someone with slanted eyes <br />or to another who's babies cries <br /> <br />Can you smile at a child <br />Who doesn't have a tongue <br />Perhaps everyone has noticed <br />That the little boy can't run <br /> <br />Could you give a lost soul confidence <br />So that they may succeed <br />In this mixed up world <br />Of what ever will be, will be <br /> <br />Giving your time and energy <br /> where it is needed the most, <br /> Will make your heart grow stronger <br />I don't mean to boast. <br /> <br />Would you reach out to a man <br />Who offered you his deformed hand, <br />Could you buy someone a meal, <br />Who sooner or later will probably steal. <br /> <br />Chubby you may not like <br />Thin may be in <br />Nothing is as heart warming <br />As a face with a toothless grin<br /><br />Christine Kerr<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/can-you-make-a-difference/
