Friends can help. No man is an Island
friends
Helping hand
If I offered you my hand
would you take it?
Let me lead you through the dark
So you can make it.
If you'll only take my hand............
----------------------------------
If I offer you a bed that
you can lie on,
A place to rest your head
and you can cry on.
If I offer you my hand.......
-------------------------
If you struggle all alone
with help from no-one
Will you make it through the dark
and keep on going?
Or will your pride enforce a fall?
Your shame be seen by all.
Yet, I offer you my hand.
---------------------------------
Do you think you are alone
when you're not perfect?
So give up trying, saying
it's not worth it?
Yet I offer you my hand.
-----------------------------
If I offer you my hand
please come and take it.!
Together ride the storm
and we can make it.
Be as humans ought to be,
Caring, sharing, free.......
If I offer you my hand....
Come walk with me.

Thank you TD. Nice to see you on my page. Glad you liked the poem. I wouldn´t dare compare my work to ¨footsteps¨
but I´m happy that you were reminded of that classic.
Nice poem Dim, and very gracious. This reminds me of the poem "Footsteps". There is always help out there from a true friend.
