TELL ME THE STORY

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)

As a child at bedtime tell me the story
Though it may be old
But not lost
Thought it may be Tall
But not false
A tale tall
A tale strong in character
A tale true

Tell me the story
Tell me the story of those that came before us
Tell me the story of the exploits
Tell me the story of their wisdom
Tell me the story of their faith
Tell me the story of their hope
Tell me the story of their Strength
Tell me the story of their fight
Tell me the story of their loss
Tell me about when they where happy
Tell me about when they were sad
Tell me about when it was interesting
Tell me about when it was boring
Tell me about when it was cold
Tell me about when it was hot
Tell me about the winter snow
Tell me about was summer heat
Tell me about the autumn leaves
Tell me about the spring rains

Tell me
Let me be reminded
Let me be convinced
Let me be trust
Let me hope
Let me beleive
Let me be encouraged

(This is why stories are told,NEVER FORGET)

You are right, my friend. Stories need to be told and shared to inspire, to encourage, to give hope and to help some people believe again.
