Frances Byrne Poet Couplet

Be Kind

Why are some people so keen
To be so mean

Why not be nice
What cost the price

Do you need to be so rough
Are you so tough

Say something kind
It will ease your mind

Do a good act
It will come right back, fact

Spread a little joy
It is like a fun toy

Have a little compassion
It is something not to ration

Love each other
We are sister and brother

David Mchattie April 10, 2020 at 12:19 PM The sad truth is some get the same rush from being mean that others get from being nice. Such is the way of the world. But we should never stop offering them an alternative. Great poem. Stay well my friend.
