Silent Message

Powerful thought, finally lands,
has always been held in her hands.
Dynamics make it hard to stand,
inhale lyrics to understand.

A message clear from up above
delivered to fit like a glove.
Character gave her soul a shove
then whispered with such tender love.

“Close both eyes shut so you can see,
the truth within everybody.
Connections move invisibly,
at times repel, then disagree.

Empathy is an urgent need,
generous acts may spread and feed,
go plant and water thirsty seeds,
then pick a few so all succeed.

Pick the truth you wish to swallow,
look straight ahead, build tomorrow.
Release the past, let go of sorrows,
leave a bright trail others can follow.

Offer wise tips, so smiles can live,
erase old wounds, learn to forgive.
Tough lessons done, do not relive,
receive but still make sure to give.”

One single tear, ego disbands,
messages heard without demands,
nor chokeholds made of mere commands,
instead quite free like windswept sand.

Inner wisdom quickly expands,
body and soul, become one strand.
Excited by this master plan,
euphoric hopes make each step grand.
