Because He Simply Cared

Today my Aunt recited a beautiful Poem she wrote some 30 odd years ago. With her permission I feel compelled to share it in a public forum.

I am new to the blogging forum and find it quite relaxing. Especially when I need to vent or rant and rave. So without further ado a poem I find highly insightful and comforting:

Because He Simply Cared

By: Carolyn S. Hedrick

Catch not the whisp of flirty eyes

That open wide to gaze

Look deep inside the unfulfilled soul

To see what lies in rage.

The wants and needs all huddled there

All longing to be free

To find their place in life and then

Just let myself be me.

To look upon the other side

And find what I may dare

To find him looking into me

The one, that really cared.

And when I find this to be true

And finally come to pass

I'll put all else in it's proper place

And humbly tip my glass.

A Toast to him that has done

What no one else has dared

He understood the inner me

Because he simply cared.

Thank you Sue for sharing this with me and allowing me to post this on my first blog. We go back some 40 years and I am so grateful you are here to share these wonderful words of inspiration with me. I look forward to 40 more!
