Sharon Ishii's Poem

CARING HANDS

You are giving Hands

Lifting and sharing Hands,

Caring Hands to be exact.

It takes more than caring

To be the Caring Hands

The nature of caring

Requires a blend

Of warmest compassion

And love deep and true

To reach and to comfort

The way that you do.

You may never change my past

With all its misery and pain

But I am comforted

That the untold stories

Of my future are bright

Because you have been there

When I needed someone to care.
