Humanity

 

Humanity

Adversity struck- no hope remained

Man knew not what to do

So they looked above at the heavens

At what they called God- and away their problems flew.

Or so it seemed- but God stuck nonetheless

Erasing all pain- the benefactor for all

Bestowing support and kindness to all beings

Through summer, winter and fall.

But in the process, haven't people forgotten 

That there are fellow humans out there,

With aspirations and hopes like theirs

And some love and support to spare?

Thou shouldn’t forget, dear friend

While you firmly believe in Him

That there is a source of solace more concrete

And that not all humans are grim.

For, humanity is always there, waiting to help,

Expecting in return neither offering nor hymn.
