A listening ear
Today my friend needed a friend
To hear her story from beginning to end.
To me she laid her problems down
As I sat still and made no sound.
She told me all her troubles and fears
All while struggling to hold back tears.
In her life she has seen it all
Reciting memories, yesterday could not recall.
With a smile and a hug, she wiped her tear
And was truly greatful for a listening ear.
