We need Compassion.

The BlackShakespeare

We need compassion for those (people) are low.

 

A hand held out for a meal, but no.

 

We walk pass casually, no feelings show. 

 

Some walk pass, whisper with an idol glow. 

 

Go find a job, you smell, just go!

 

I'm on top of the world and money vast.

 

I take vacations and travel first class.

 

You poor people and homeless people is all I see.

 

I know you  would love to be just like me.

 

But life has its up and downs.

 

I'm on top of the mountain, but now I'm down.

 

I've lost my money and homeless now.

 

I'm on the streets begging - how?

 

We need compassion for our human race.

 

We all have challenges that we will face.

 

Let's show love, be meek with grace.

    Something tells me the rich will never be meek, they think the world belongs to them.

  • Poetic Dan

    Very nice flow, always down to the individual but this a good start before we mention the mental parts!

  • spilleronsheet

    Words used at their best and such a good message…the sun told evolved in latest technology alas why the humanity seems degrading..wonder why humans became poles apart?

  • Goldfinch60

    Fine words, if only all could show compassion to others this would be a wonderful world.
