Feeding One Another

Feeding One Another

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

Feeding One Another

 

What a world this would be…

If the heart was what we see.

If the size of a person was measured by love,

If the weight of life would could be prayed up.

 

Words could ease pain,

Tears wiped away.

If only we could love more,

Feeding one another, what blessings in store.

 

More hope, less fear,

More faith, less doubting leers.

More giving, less taking,

More truth, less faking.


What a world this world be…

If we saw each other as perfectly unique.

If we allowed our hearts to wonder,

If we began feeding one another.

 

Gifts we have been given

Are spiritually driven;

To be used to bless,

Helping to relieve stress.


To give of one’s self

Is to give spiritual wealth.

For we no longer hunger

When feeding one another.

I agree.
"To give of one’s self
Is to give spiritual wealth.
For we no longer hunger
When feeding one another. "
The above lines are true. Would be a better world if we led with concern, kindness and love. Thank you Melinda for sharing the excellent poetry.
