Poetry is Power

The heart of the river

Rivers,

Flowing,

Gliding, 

Hear the water peacefully flow over the rocks,

Gliding down stream,

Softly,

Peacefully.

If you listen close enough,

you’ll hear a sound,

like no other sound before:

Kindness. 

Keep in the hear of the river,

kindness.

It’s a sound that needs to be heard more. 

Open your heart and deep inside you’ll find kindness,

I promise you it’s there,

Just let it be heard. 

Kindness is in a river, and you can be kind, too.
