    -(submission for feature of the week poem) 

    They say,
    when the world is suffering
    we need shielding
    But what we also need
    is soothing!

    What we need the most
    is an extended hand of help

    The question isn’t about
    who is mighty- the sword or the pen?
    Because the world need every bit
    Of support by men and women

    What we need the most
    Is an extended hand of help

    The hands of those
    Who can help by protecting,
    And the hands of the others
    Who can help by supporting

    We need the hands
    Wearing gloves, soaked in blood
    We need the hands
    Soaked in paint, painting a potrait

    All we need, is what you have to offer
    All we need, is an extended hand of help

    Because in this battle of suffering
    We’re all trying to heal
    And we’re all healers.
