Value

Value Our Quiet Times

When Our Minds Can Be Still

And We Can Go Within 

Singlemindeness  Has Gone

We Are Tapping Into Each Other

The Generations One To Another Are Coming Together 

The Young And The Old Where Knowledge And Wisdom Can Be Shared,Taught And Told

Through Acts Of Services And Kindness

Friendships Are Being Formed

We Value Our Relationships With Strangers Who Now Are Friends

Neighbours Who Have Been There For Us

At Times Saving Us From Going Round The Bend 

A Friendly Face That Knocks On Doors

To Walk A Dog Or Get A Shop

The Daily Chores, Sorely Missed That Some Can No Longer Do

They Are Cocooning At Home

For The Sake Of Me And You

We Are All Making Sacrifices

This Much Is True

For The Best Outcome To Be

Another Survives, Another One Gets To Stay Alive

Health Care Workers Who Work In The Care Of Others

Have Lost Their Lives

No Greater Reason Do We Need To Stay Safe Inside

These Earth Angel’s Risked Their Lives To Save Another

No Greater Gift Could They Give

Than To Sacrifice Their Life

So That Others Might Live

Let’s Put This In Perspective 

What Is Being Asked Of Us

To Stay Brave,To Stay Strong

To Do Our Best

To Honor Those Who Have Gone Before

We Stay Safe, Behind Our Door
