Next Time You Are Out Riding

In wheelchairs or hospital beds,
in their homes or a facility
Senior Citizens are looking
for a visit from you or me.
They're not asking for some money
or a gift with a pretty bow
But rather they seek a visit,
a chat with someone they know.

You may not have much time
to stop and say hello
But any time you can give
would be a blessing you should know.
The aged people are ever quick
to say thank you for everything;
Whether it's a simple card
or a smile that you bring.

Next time you are out riding
and have a minute or two
Stop by a local rest home
and give the gift of "you"
The joy that you'll experience,
the love that you will share
Will be the best gift
you'll be taking there.
