Helping HandsThe world needs more helping hands. And you never know when it is that you may need a helping hand. Things can change in a split second, things that out of our control.Many hands make light work is a saying my Grandmother use to quote to us. And how true that is. We hope these poems encourage you to lend a helping hand and also accept a helping hand! Poet: Catherine Pulsifer © 2020 A helping hand was given to me At a time when I felt I couldn't see I felt so down and so alone What would happen next was unknown. I felt the world was against me But out of the blue, a helping hand was offered to me I felt like an angel had been sent Helping me to a great extent. It was hard to accept but no choice I had And when I accepted it wasn't so bad At that time I vowed I would help others like me Because of the help I got, it set me free. So if you need a helping hand Don't let your pride take over, just understand We should all help each other Because in the end, we are all sisters and brothers.

Receiving Help Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2011 Inspiration is all around us, yes this is true, It just takes some looking around. If you find something helpful to give you a hand, Allow it to assist you, hands down! Receiving and giving come hand in hand, And to receive is nothing to knockdown. By not allowing someone to help bring you up, Is helping to keep you way down. So don’t worry about taking without giving, Just be grateful for all the help you have now. When you start cruising in the good life you dreamed of, You then can start giving back as you’ve vowed. A helpful hand is a lesson in sharing And if you have the means why not play your part. Those who refuse your help are foolish, As we all know appreciating the helpful hand is just smart. There is a saying that goes like this, "What you give, you get." Often times in life we do not want to accept help when we need it. Yet, we often find ourselves helping others. Our opinion is that life is about helping each other - giving helping hands - receiving helping hands; the Poet's words express exactly that. Take the assistance when you need it, and someday you will assist someone and payment will be made. It is sort of like the pass it on theory. You do good for someone else, and they, in turn, do good for others - what a wonderful world this would be it we all live like this!

Helping Others Poet: Kate Summers, © 2011 Too often the world is full only about me Others need help and if only I would be More generous and caring for others Realizing at the end of the day we are all brothers. We all have time to help another Rather than looking the other way and taking cover. It may be money, it may be time It all helps if only a dime. There is such a need in this world today To lend a helping hand is certainly a way We could give back instead of being greedy The world is full of people who are needy. Many times it is not their fault Where they live is under assault And you never know when the day will come When you will need a helping hand and some. So while the times are good for you Consider others in all you do Open your eyes and lend a helping hand There is much we can do, and so much demand. You will find blessings come back to you And feelings of thankfulness will be true. You will impact the lives of others in a way That you may not realize, please help today.
