Volunteers

You gave me hope
A chance to try again
To find my independence that was lost
A way to cope
A way to cast aside the pain
A hand to hold, someone to lean on, and to trust
You may not all
recall my name or face
You are not all as well known yet to me
But when I call
I know you'll find a place
To care for my belongings while you set me free
The liberty
to go where I would go
No need to ask another for their help
The time for me
To wander off alone
the choice to mix with others or be on my own
You give your time,
Your smiles, your listening ears
your helping hand
your laughter, friendship and your care.
Who can I mean?
Who else? The Volunteers!
Without whom.....?
Oh! What would we do without you there!
