A Certain Cure
I HAVE often known a heart to find quick com
fort
Through reaching out to help another’s woe.
There is a healing in it, a forgetting
Of one’s own self that starts an inner glow
Of warmth and light where there had been but
ashes, N
Sodden and gray because of some deep grief, ,
And suddenly a golden flame starts singing
Because another’s heart has found relief. ,
Across the svorld there are so many burdens
Long borne by shoulders bent beneath their load.
A cure for care—a healing of one’s sorrow
May be found in the lifting of a load,
The sharing of it with some staggering brother. ..
O burdened one, to find a cercain peace
Go forth, reach out to help wr.ere help is needed,
And surely your own quivering hurt will cease.
