GIVING AND RECEIVING!
GIVING AND RECEIVING!
I launched a smile; far out it sailed
On life's wide troubled sea
And many more than I could count
Came sailing back to me
I clasped a hand while whispering
"The clouds will melt away."
I felt my life was very blessed
All through the hours that day
I sent a thought of happiness
Where it was needed sore
And very soon after, found joy adding to my store.
I wisely shared my slender hoard
Toil-earned coins of gold
But presently, it flowed right back.
Increased a hundred fold.
I helped another climb a hill, a little thing to do
And yet it brought a rich reward
A friendship that was new
I think each morning when I rise
Of how I may achieve.
I know by serving, I advance.
By GIVING I RECEIVE.
