Hate
Is
Mankind’s
Most toxic
Poison
Contaminating
All
Whom it
Touches
Fortunately
Within
Each of us
Lies
The anecdote
Love
I sincerely
Hope
Artificial Intelligence
Is
Smart enough
To
Save us
From
Ourselves
Gratitude felt
Large
Or
Small
The travails of
Life
Largely
Forestalls
Those who
Sow
Gratitude
Day by
Day
Reap
Happiness
A multitude
Of
Ways
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
We each are
Famous
In our
Way
If to
Our essence
We do
Stay
With unique
Talents
To be
Laid
On the line
Each and
Every
Day
Our debt to
Self and
The world to
Pay
Shiny new
Luster
Away does
Erode
Once old
Patina
Continues to
Grow
Conceited, stuck up,
Snotty bore
On a
High horse
But
What for
Those
Most genuinely
Adored
Leave
All pretense
At
The door
Keep on trucking
Down the
Road
As life’s journey
Ahead
Unfolds
A bright future
Strive to
Mold
As your destiny
Is
Told
Pursue directions
Brave and
Bold
Help others bear
Their heavy
Load
Time and again
Those in the public eye
Wielding great power
Through accrued
Fame and fortune
Have fallen
Short of the mark
Letting us down
Miserably
In the quest for
Exemplary models
The focus could be
Narrowed considerably
By concentrating
The search
Much closer to home
It is within
Common people
That
Uncommon goodness
Often is found
Joy, love
And
Fulfillment
Can’t be
Manufactured
As
They are
Gifts
We receive
At
Unexpected
Times
Never packaged
Exactly
The same way
Twice
We must remain
Open
To welcome them
Whenever
And
In whatever
Form
They arrive
