UNFORCED LOVE & KINDNESS

Kindness comes from within our soul,
It cannot be forced – as rain comes
So our relationships with everything
Dictate how we go on in the world –
In those who have never experienced
A true kindness, with no other needs
But the will of one thing in each other:
Forgive, they know not what they do.

Love comes from within our heart,
It cannot be faked – as sunshine comes
So our relationships with everything
Dictate how we go on in the world –
For to experience love is to experience
A transcendent joy, of shared making;
It is the will of one thing in each other:
Share it, they will know then what to do.
