What Do You See?
Looking at the world
Filled with people
With brown or blue eyes
Do you see as God sees
God sees hearts and souls
God created colors
Man created prejudice

A Rebellious House
Dwelling in the midst
Of closed eyes, ears, and minds
Rebellious house
Shuttered ears are deaf
To the truth knocking
Closed eyes can’t see the truth
Through shuttered windows
Mutinous minds existing
Behind hostility’s doors

Give Kindness
Kindness,
Easy to give,
But so often not given.
Hearts are waiting to receive,
Be kind.
Cinquain
We would call a man selfish who should refuse to give a cup of water to one who was thirsty. Yet many of us do this continually: it is the heart that thirsts, and the water we refuse to give is human kindness.
