I Care

How do I show I care?
With a smile
A wink
A tug of the hair

How do I show I care?
With my time
For friends
I try to be there

How do I show I care?
With trusting
To tell
The secrets I bear

How do I show I care?
With money
For those
Who need me to share

How do I show I care?
With my faith
I help
In saying a prayer

How do I show I care?
With amends
To end
The cold, angry glare

How do I show I care?
With a song
To make
Others more aware

How do I show I care?
With a dream
To fix
That which seems unfair
