Poetry: Compassion

by Deiondre Alexander

Created on: September 17, 2008

A touch, selfless and innocent

Gullible, but you can change the world

A gift of roses bestowed from your eyes

Soft and immortal, brighter than words

Reaching out to a withdrawn hand

Breaking a fall when you're fallen

Kindness, so dominant, a radiance

Nurturing the gardens of humanity

When the sun is all that outshines you,

Children light up your eyes

Sensitive, but loving, taking things from the shoulders of the world

That weigh down, that crush, but you stand for sacrifice

Miracles ever at your gentle fingertips

Because you, Love, know how to touch

Respect, by choice, and compromise by what it is unto itself

And by nature, nothing less than love

Desire, so selfless, a charm and perfection

Even your anger, Love, is gentle

All things living fall under your concern

A tender manner that is spiritual, physical, and beautifully mental
