As you live out your days
please promise me you'll stay,
Truly in focus
on what's the most noticed.
For it's not what you think
it should be dear,
For what people connect with
and remember is rare.
Yet it something unique
that we each can give,
A smile or word of hope
and a hug to help someone cope.
It doesn't take much
to make a difference in time,
Yet the results are abundant
when I stop and give mine.
So that next moment you encounter
a chance for encouragement to give,
I hope you'll remember
it's a small price to live.
