You call out in your despair, as the load has become too much to bare

The aid you require has your vision impaired

For the moment all you see is all about you and no one else

How to relieve yourself of this task and get some rest

 

What if you took a moment?

To examine those that you have enlisted for aid

Have you seen their weary hearts?

Have you seen their tired eyes?

 

Their heart geared always to assist

Even at their expense they will not desist

For “No” is a word their mouth knows not

Sleep a luxury even when their body cries out

 

Let us take time to be aware of others

Of those we allow to assist yet assistance they too need

To be the helping hand not always the one in need

To put others ahead not always focusing on self
