»Time Limit«

by Hettie Van Zyl

Some times it is hard to accept things.
And sometimes it is hard to understand.
But the most important thing in a time of need
Is to reach out your helping hand.
Not trying to first figure things out.

So to get your point of view.
Because sometimes you have plenty of time to help.
But sometimes the minutes are few.
Now how will you know the limit of time.

That is left over for you to reach.
That person that is drowning because of his problems.
That person in terrible need.
Be in HURRY...Because you will not know.
