Goodness

Plodding in the afterglow

through yesterday's mistake,

finding that all is good

and efforts are replaced

by countless grains of

goodness brought

by deeds of selflessness

The sparrow doesn't

know the cost of

wars, plots and schemes;

it flies no less in single flight

along the slender plain to

find it's soul mate and it's 

life, to breathe and live and die

The destitute can all be one

even if though rich,

and life can only begin

when self is lost and

others gain by giving,

love and peace
