Humanity

A Poem by KWP

A poem inspired by another WC poet... :)

Humanity 

I love you so

I discover you in 

my reflections 


All around 

conditioned souls

patience awaits in

life's directions 


If I could take you 

Humanity -

hold you long 

into the night 


We'd watch the lessons

to be learnt, 

witness dawning 

of new light


Humanity if I could 

rock you so 

learning what it means

to forgive


I 'd sing forgiveness in

a lullaby 

within the chorus

learn to live


Humanity 

You beat the drum

the rhythm holds

promise to discover


Empathy lost and 

new love found

to make life itself 

our lover

A lovely poem that you have written from deep within your heart."Humanity I love you so, I discover you in my reflections." Such a wonderful and moving line you have penned. Humanity is in all of us, some tend to know it well and others not so much. Very well done, thank you for sharing.

Very interesting to read such a kind of poem,, and you did your work perfectly here :)

That's like a lullaby and dedication in itself. I agree with others but I did have a teensy bit hard time understanding it in some places. The reason I have yet to meet such humanity may be it.

Now this is one hell of a poem, quality and class with so much meaning packed in, i'm sure if you could hold humanity even for a few seconds it would learn so much, you wrote a perfect poem here Boss Lady, just right for our times :) XX
