A Poem

Just wanted to share a poem with you today.

At Days End
Is anybody happier because you passed his way?
Does anyone remember that you spoke to him today?
The day is almost over and its toiling time is trough,
Is there anyone to utter now a kindly work to you?
Can you say tonight in parting with the day that's slipping fast,
That you helped a single brother of the many that you passed?
Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said?
Does the man whose hopes are fading now with courage look ahead?
Did you wast the day or lose it, was it well or sorely spent?
Did you leave a trail of kindness or a scar of discontent?
As you close you eyes in slumber do you think that God will say,
"You have earned one more tomorrow by the work you did today?"
