Compassion

By Silver Angel

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

To cry when you feel another's pain To feel real joy in another's smile To listen when one needs to be heard To lift the spirits when one is at their lowest To go that extra mile when no one else will To give of yourself no matter how bad you feel If you have done one small favor for another For no other reason than to make someone feel better To make another's life a little easier Or to give openly and freely of yourself Neither wanting, nor needing anything in return Then you have experienced The unbelieveably Inner satisfying Heart warming Soul nurturing Ever gratifying Emotion of Compassion Written January 14th, 2002 © on Jan 14 2002 01:18 AM PST   0 • 10
