THE TENDER TOUCH

by Wayne Gates   Aug 16, 2016


The tender touch can be powerful indeed.

A hand laid gently on your shoulder
Can cut straight through the armor
That you wear to hide your pain.

A softly held hand can guide you
Along on the most arduous of journeys.

A gentle hug can comfort you
As you face life's most trying times.
