Because You Believed Always willing to lend a hand asking nothing in return. Offering encouragement when there seemed too much to learn. Every time I said "I can't" you laughed and assured me I could. When I sighed "I'll never learn" you replied of course I would. Your encouragement ... and cajoling ... your nurturing, gentle way Inspired me to persevere you were there each step of the way. It was at times, discouraging, frustrating as could be But in the end I achieved my goal because You believed in me! ©Sharon Langan |
