COMPASSION IN FASHION
Compassion, seems so out of fashion;
With precarious flare, do we dare, does one care, full circle...we share!
Think it worthless to show purpose, in a troubled time;
After all, it's your life...your dime?
Maybe a simple prayer, be silent...who knows;
Of what the stress has taken, it shows.
And before you forgive compassion's rule;
Look at the creative school...
Of emotions in disarray;
It's one thing to be something, glowing like a pumpkin;
It's the price of being different, your way!
So the focus look, like water in a brook;
It's distance close but running by;
Compassion is not out of fashion, showing your feelings to and fro;
For those just getting by!
Efforts toward perfection, the infection of those who fail to quit;
Be loyal to your loved ones, see the reality of ageing, do not give up and sit...
Not anyone is perfect, yet some closer than most;
Give them credit for doing so well, so high on the post...
But, for most we fail and try again, humans bound back once more;
And just when you think you got it, something came up and shot it...
Once again finding yourself on the floor!
Other be watching your movement, through variable plause;
As you get to your feet, claiming no defeat;
You are the contender of cause...
So, feel the emotion, the potion of care, as one defy's certain doom;
It's the coding of compassion, that should always be in fashion;
Facts first...don't always assume!
