The Greatest Gift of All

​

I am the hopes of a thousand mornings
I am the dreams of our yesterday
I am the warmth that binds humanity
I am the light that never fades

 

I am the rain that falls on a barren land
I am the sunshine which kisses the dawn
I am the fire that warms on a winter’s night
I am the invisible arms which enfold

 

I am you & all you were
And all that you ever will be
And when lost in life’s sometimes darkness
You can always come to me

 

I am spoken of by the ancient ones
But known by another name
I am love….. I am compassion
I am the difference which makes us the same

 

I am never seen but I am everywhere
Without me … love cannot be
You know me by another name
My name …is ‘Empathy !’
