Here a tribute to the kind-hearted
who among the many hardened ones
save the day
reaching out to the battered ones
Here a trilbute to the tender-hearted
who only ask for love in return
Place the spot-light on self-styled "realists"
who strike out at others in the name of necessity.
Strike down those who in the name of order
and freedom enslave everyone but themselves
Shun the dishonest and the cowards who turn away
rather than confront evil or welcome its embarace
Rake the malicious gossips who sew deceit into the fabric
of our lives while hiding behind he-said- she said curtains
Stand down the bullies who bully everyone they can
especially the children. Prepare a special place for them in hell.
Stare down the critics who have no solutions but only negativities
whose every sentence begins with "Yes-but."
Confront the office boss whose very life-blood is bossing others
Dress down the "always right" authoritarian abusing power.
Protect the children and the gentle-natured
Stay the rising hand and the cutting tongue
Gentle the loving and the kind and do something to help everyday
Get out, don't stay home and make things better
Don't take work and cut-throat profit values home with you
Don't make money your God
Take revenge on no one, learn to be human
Do what Jesus would do because
we, each and everyone, has his example.
Blessings,
Christine
