Cure the World.

Goldfinch60

There are many of them out there

But they are never seen,

Little pebbles of kindness,

Kindnesses given each day to others.

Could it happen one day

That one of these pebbles

Could be tossed in a pond

And the ripples of kindness flow,

Flow out to all in the world

So that the pond of our lives

Becomes smooth and calm,

And our world finds peace for all.

    Good write G.

    I'm becoming more convinced that some National Day of Prayer would really help, though some may scoff at it.We could have endless elections, 'schemes for peace' etc, but I don't think they really get to the roots of things. This too sounds good - a positive 'epidemic' of kindness. We've had negative epidemics of plagues, sickness, etc.

      Thanks for your comments Orchi, let us start the epidemic.

      I love the idea of the ripples of water Goldfinch!

      • Goldfinch60

        All it takes is one pebble for the ripples to reach everyone. Thanks WBL.

        There is a great sense of hope after reading this inspiring piece. It comes almost in a self reflecting or confrontional fashion for me. I can genuinely feel your passion for helping others, and there is also a strong protest for a neighbor's effort to evolve community impact which can lead to global peace. You are indeed a revolutionary with a vision.

          Thank you Lamar. If only this could be achieved, helping others is not hard, it is just small things that can mean so much to others but the world just cannot see this.

            You have to continue to advocate peace and campaign the virtue of global harmony. Your courage to stand for unity is outstanding. You have a great mind to challenge the world to reflect. Thank you for providing a piece of hope in a few skillfully crafted words.
