Humanity

Humankind should show benevolence to those in pain
Unselfish concern needs to be put first when kindness is in need
Mercy and generosity may fulfill one’s daydream of being accepted
Altruism with clemency can reveal a true desire to be understood
Nations should coexist in permissiveness and gleam with righteousness
Inside everyone of us is a light ready to shine with exuberant inner beauty
Tenacity and perseverance should be showered with soft-heartedness
You and me should bestow compassion to those deserving of love
