Kindness – Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

A morning haiku

A senryu on kindness

we disdain kindness

rage: this visage of power

now learn gentleness

I reject the paradigm of rage

Replacing that with kindness

Seeking all the world’s beauty

Then magnify it all

Life’s immense beauty
Gets overshadowed sometimes
By crass destruction

It concerns me, at times, how much we prefer destructive rhetoric over the positive. There are times I wonder if we, as a group, know how.

Perhaps

The quick

kind

word

Can save

a life

Or a

soul
