A Caring Man

A Caring Man
By Bud Lemire on Dec 12, 2009

 
He was a man I recognized from before
When he use to work at the Sav-Mor
A quiet man, but caring in his ways
I came to know him better in recent days
 He’s had his share of losses, in the time that he’s spent here
His own battle with his health would cause some to shed a tear
It seems our human bodies, break down so easily
Things we never thought it could ever be
 Thank God for the strong spirit, that each of us own
That keeps us going strongly, on our long journey home
Many of us never realize, the spirit that’s inside
Until our human life is done, and we’ve gone and died
 He works on the jigsaw puzzle, it calms his mind
Brings him to tranquility, leaving stressful thoughts behind
He’ll take in conversations with those who are around
And he helps those in need, wherever they are found
 He appreciates the little things
And takes whatever life brings
He carries on the best that he can
This friend of mine is A Caring Man
