RHYMES FOR A REASON: Give love
To receive love, you must give love Love to family, friends and neighbours. To the old and to the young As well as those not so fortunate.
Giving this love and caring
Will come back in many ways.
You will feel the love returning
In many, many ways.
When you are down and low
The love you gave to others
Will come back to help you too,
The way you gave to others.
So go and give your love
To all those who need it.
C'os you never really know,
When it needs to be returning.
By Sandra Rose, Fullerton Crescent, Rotherham S65.
