This is a little out of the norm for me, but one of my favorite reposts. Hope you enjoy it...


Poem Artwork

I may not can change the world
but I can make a difference in one
person's life
When I see a lost little boy I can
wipe his tears
Help him find his way home
If I can teach one person about
God's love,  my life will be worthwhile.


I may not can change the world
but I can make it better for
someone in need. I can go to a
nursing home or hospital..read to
the elderly...hold their hand..make
them feel needed.

I may not can change the world..but
I can bring a hot meal to my neighbor
who is sick and can't cook. I can bring
flowers to a lonely widow...and hope
to the sick and depressed. I can give 
a smile if I cannot give anything else

I may not can change the world..but
I can bring a teddy bear to a small child
who's crying and alone. I can read them
a story and hug them. It may be the only
hug they have all day..or all week.
Some times
their eyes light up with just a gentle hug.

I may not can change the world...but I
Can still salute our great flag...pray for our
Soldiers...and our land. I can work now to
make things better for the children and
their children. I can teach them to Love
not hate their fellowmen. That we are All equal

I may not can change the world..but I Can
Do my part. If everyone marches to the SAME
drum....not to their own beat...then we CAN
change the world. If everyone can give LOVE..
And have COMPASSION and GENTLENESS..
YES, we can change the world...TOGETHER...

Linda,
The little acts of kindness and of love are what really count, not big gestures and empty words. Your heart shines and it makes all the difference in the world.

The poem or prose whichever one choose to call it tells why you must get a book published. The world will hear what you have to say Linda but more importantly needs to hear what you have to say! Your written words from God! The consolation, exaltation, inspiration, courage and the call and challange to make life better for otherss. I say and you and I are in concert on this: Prayer changes us and we change the world! Peace!!! Rev. Michael C. Jones/the dancing poet.

Linda,
Thanks for your repost. I never read the original so I'm glad you decided to put it up again. A great write and play on "I may not can change the world." Shows to go how one person can change the world by paying it forward. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, you maybe couldn't change the world, but at least you try when the rest, with a shrug of their shoulders tell themselves, "it can't be done" and don't even try.
