Just a Touch
By John Cannon

If you do
only one thing
this day
and every day,

Touch
a loved one.

If you say
not one word
this day
or any day,

Touch
a loved one.

And if
there is no loved one
within your reach
this day
or any day,

send a message ―

a word
a look
an image
a thought

that will

Touch
a loved one.

It is so easy
to do this,

and

there is nothing
more important
to do

this day
or any day.
