Humane Humans

2.  “ Humane Humans ”
 
   Listen? Is that so hard to do?
Everyone is always talking, but can’t they listen too?
 
Smile, how’s it feel upon your face?
You should do it more, till it no longer feels so out of place .
 
Feel, and please not just for yourself,
Put another first, care for someone else .
 
Now breathe, think about your day, and someone you may have touched, while making your own way .
 
You are now human, please give yourself a hand . Go forth and spread kindness amongst your fellow man .
 
If you can truly do this? I know you’ll be ok . Let’s be humans together, a world in peace to god I pray .
 
It’s simple, so simple can’t you see,
If we all could practice patience,
To hurry there’s no need .
 
Look around, at all the gifts that we’ve been given . Be thankful your still here, it’s a gift the fact we’re living .

(2015)

This poem is about how people have forgotten to be humane with each other .
