Sotto Poet Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Magic of Hope and Kindness

Written: August 30, 2023
______________________________________________________________

I believe the reach of empathy is endless.
My soul echoes with love and kindness. 
But the lure of larkiness entices me deeply.
Hidden yearning, teasing current meekly. 

While singing, I discover liberation in the air. 
A tune that eliminates all despair. 
The emotion is what is significant not the lyrics. 
A distortion of realism as my soul soars, empirics.  

In mischief, there's a spark, a wayward flame,
A twinkle in the eye, a game to proclaim.
Not utterly harm, but a playful jest,
To bestow laughter and joy—a moment of zest.

In kindness, I find solace in the world.
A gentle touch that mends all that's unfurled
A little spectacular, but a straightforward act,
To brighten someone's day, to leave an impact.

When singing, my voice becomes a guiding light.
A sparkle of hope shines through the night.
In the darkest hours, when all seems lost,
The melody of faith will never exhaust.

Not utterly understood but deeply felt,
A tone of the heart, as skepticism is meant. 
In kindness, I find strength to overcome.
To lift others up and support them become

The best versions of themselves, to inspire,
To ignite a fire within, a burning desire.
In mischief, there's a lesson to learn,
To embrace the unexpected, to bear a turn.

David Kavanagh September 1, 2023 at 1:59 AM To inspire others costs us absolutely nothing Lasaad, I’m not talking about charisma or buttering up people, as this can be faked, the ones that inspire me most are the open minded people, who put others first as you do in this excellent selfless piece, cheers David

Ink Empress August 31, 2023 at 8:50 AM This resonates with me on a very deep level. As i too am fluent in the language of kindness, and i find inner joy and satisfaction, knowing ive made someones day. Empathy is rare, and being an empath is not always easy, when energy can be felt so deeply: i think it is both a gift and a curse to be an empath. But to be kind, is necessary in a weak world. I truly love your rhymes, they are as always so unique and captivating. And this poem is heartfelt and your words flow in seamless eloquence

Speaks Volumes August 30, 2023 at 11:35 PM I see it Robert and concur. I often think my dear friend is "pulling my leg" with his wonderful comments to my poetry. I am sure he takes delight in offering such magnificent praise where it isn't earned, and he knows it is bringing such pleasure. It always brings a smile, while knowing all the while that this marvelous Sotto Poet, has a touch of humor between the lines to bring happiness to us all. Lasaad please keep being you. The joy you bring is what Soup Poetry is made of. ( and that's just your comments, I haven't even started praising your own poetry yet) love from SV
