Oh, how often we tend to say <br />To ourselves in a quiet way <br />"Please Lord, make this a better day <br />Give me strength, love and words to pray". <br />Words we find difficult to share <br />with those we love kept unaware <br />It's those we love we need to bare <br />Those spoken words that tell we care. <br />Words we need to utter aloud <br />Without shame, or feeling too proud <br />Whether alone or in a crowd <br />Speak up, and not with head low bowed. <br />If you forget or choose to wait <br />Those words you'd speak might be too late <br />so open your heart, don't hesitate <br />And then if need be reiterate. <br />T'will restore your soul anew <br />To say those words, if only a few <br />Kind, simple, tender words should do <br />Like the magic of "I love you".<br /><br />Edmund D.
