Classic Poem

If you have a tender message,
—Or a loving word to say,
Do not wait till you forget it,
—But whisper it today;
The tender word unspoken,
—The letter never sent,
The long forgotten messages,
—The wealth of love unspent—
For these some hearts are breaking,
—For these some loved ones wait;
So show them that you care for them
—Before it is too late.

The long forgotten messages,
—The wealth of love unspent—
For these some hearts are breaking,
—For these some loved ones wait;
So show them that you care for them
—Before it is too late.
