Speak softly with tones of calm
Let them know you care
Allow them first to realize
The reason that your there
It’s not for you to give advice
Or judge them or compare
But sit and listen to their world
Of sorrow and despair
Sooth their pain with empathy
Take them by the hand
And gently lead them from this place
To find a brighter land
You cannot solve their problems
Or take onboard their pain
But help them through just one more day
Whilst they their strength regain

and I bet you have a great shoulder for leaning on mate.
Lovely Poem Dave, to know you have someone like this to turn to, can make all the difference. Magical words so eloquently put.

This has moved me...and I doubt I need to say why. Your poem is very insightful as you are...definitely a dash of whisky and a dollop of cream for you ...blow the calories...giggle.
Love Chrissie x

An open ear and a strong shoulder is what most of us require in life, but so seldom ever receive. For those of us who once had but lost, this is just a small reminder.
Time given generously, is worth a small fortune to those in need of an ear.
Thank you for sharing this.

Dave,
Wonderful poem. So true. You've got a good handle on the human psyche and got the message across very nicely. Well done.
