Give

Give smiles to a stranger.
Give hugs to your mother;
Give friends and family a call.
Give love to one another.

Give compliments to others.
Give someone a ride;
Give offerings at your church -
Give what you feel inside.

When someone stops you for a need,
While you're on your way;
Give them your time.
Don't turn them away.

There's you, and there are others
In this life of give and take;
Who you think of at any moment,
Determines which choice you'll make.

You'll be much happier
If you choose this way to live;
Why not give it a try
If it doesn't hurt to give?
