Kindness

A Poem by E.J. Waling

Life.
An
innocent
born.
Unknown
perils
await.
Life
long
path
of
trials,
pain,
suffering.
Many
stumble.
Many
fall,
fail.
Fail
to get
up.
Helping
hand
extended,
few
to be
found.
Short
run.
Game
over.
Much to
overcome.
Ladders
to climb.
Success.
No
guarantee.
Obstacles
abound.
Dog eat
dog.
Pushed
down
stepped
over,
on.
Tough
enough
as is.
Sickness
suffering.
Cold.
Selfish,
self serving.
Ruling
the waves.
Kindness
in short
supply.
Meanness
in abundance.
Life.
What
a different
experience
for all,
if the
guiding
light of
kindness
shown
the way.
