A Little Help

Always be good to everyone!

A little help is so easy to give.
All it takes is willingness
To not see who is in need
But to look at the need itself.

A little help is so easy to deny,
All you need to do is to look away
That it's worthless to try
It's their fault they went astray.

We look onto ourselves
As if our world is all within us
We fail to see that goodness
If given regularly can be contagious.

A little help can be inconvenient
May cause trouble, or bring dangers
Yet if we accept to be lenient
We may change the life of strangers.

A little help can mean so much
For those who don't expect it
As it shows that there is hope
When there is someone to commit.

We look ourselves in mirrors
Not knowing that our reflections
Show the health of our souls
For beauty comes from our elections.

A little help so many need
Not because of choice, but of fate,
Decree, their breed or just their creed.
If we wish we can set things straight.

A little help can mean much more
It liberates us from our binds
It allows us to explore
The greatness of our kind.

We look onto the future
Uncertain of what it holds
When a little help can nurture
Brighter days for our world.

A natural helper, I came straight to this title, and was not disappointed.
I love that amongst all the tears and shadows / the dreams and pretense, we can still come across the necessary work of substance.
An instant favorite for me,

Thank for sharing
