THE MILK OF KINDNESS

THE MILK OF KINDNESS

How can you call one kind

If  you fail, the milk of kindness in him, to find,

Who wears nothing except a hollow, jejune heart

Plays for the whole creation a least humane part?

The milk of kindness is a sweet, spontaneous spring

Sallies  perennially on the bed of a kind human being,

Flows ceaselessly to fulfill, yet never ever to anticipate

As a kind mother ever lives for, and takes care of her pet.

The milk of kindness is a rare, blissful yield of the heaven

That thrives luxuriantly inside a bounteous heart garden

Booned to ever  relent, recuperate, revitalize and gladden.

God incarnates alone are with this Panacea blest and laden!

Spout thus a few drops of Milk of Kindness, suck not a little

Unbreakable and immortal shall be your  life fleeting and brittle!

* Panacea – a medicine for all types of diseases
