    “Give me this gift, an understanding heart
    That I may comfort souls along the way.
    On wings of mercy, let my words convey
    Tidings that heal and bless when tear drops start.
    May this gift be of me so much a part
    That eloquence will brighten every day.
    (The inner knowing of just what to say
    And when to say it is a master art.)
    In all my striving let my heart discern
    When silence is the greater need,
    When just to listen while a soul is freed
    Of pent-up yearnings fosters hope's return.

    Words can best fill their embassy of peace
    After the burdened heart has found release.”
    Mirla Greenwood Thayne, The Little Things: Poems, Stories & Articles for the Family
