Seed of Kindness

Listen to me closely
As I speak what must be spoken
It’s a knowledge we all contain
The silence has finally been broken

Open your eyes
Look around, what do you see?
I see misery, torture everywhere
And anywhere it could possibly be

There is hope
I also see a light
A light to lead the way
It shines so bright

No, it is not God’s light
Or any religious sphere
It’s just a light that reflects
The kindness of a person near

Not just anyone
Can fashion a light so bright
Only one distinctly pure
Who wishes no one to blight

Each and every single person
Carries a seed of this within
It just needs a little nurturing
To blossom without sin

So think about this seed
When you put yourself first
It cannot grow while
Hate and sin still thirst
