Remember dear friends
Seek out love and compassion
Flow through you and out
Tag: compassion
Growing beyond surviving
Anyone who seeks to turn
Trauma and horrors’ emotional energy
Towards compassion and kindness
Embraces the deepest wisdom.
Our culture has a dearth of love.
I applaud all those who
Long to grow that seed.
The need is great.
Compassion
I seek compassion,
Please let the gentleness flow
From my marrow’s core
Welcoming
Simple acts of welcome
Gentleness, arms over shoulders
Creating a glorious web
Safety, enabling growth
Compassion
Gentleness descends
Compassion’s greatness saves me
Branches bloom anew
Via Negativa
I try responding
To negativity
By facing this rage,
Sadness, misery, and
Acting against it with
Compassion and love.
For water is what cools
Fire.
Crushed Compassion
Huddled upon the floor
Sobbing and bleeding,
Raging flesh’s brutality
Crushes another. Yet
That is not enough. No.
We demand to know
Why this overwhelming force
Was courted, sought. Insanity.
Compassion, perhaps,
Died. Revive it I shall.
Compassion
Maybe, just maybe
We will let compassion live
Deeply within us.
