Compassion

[Guest guest]

Here is an inspiring poem written by Jamie Sams from her book 'Earth

Medicine'-- Enjoy!

 

 

COMPASSION

 

Compassion has felt the burden

Of a body wracked with pain,

Has wandered on and off the path,

And then returned again.

Compassion has borne the brunt

Of senseless, brutal jests,

And known the fears and agonies

That life presents as tests.

Compassion has been the lonely child,

Crying for comfort in the night,

Facing all the demons alone

And praying for the light.

Compassion has known the struggle

Of healing bitterness and hate,

Refusing to pass the poison on,

Walking through freedom's gate.

Compassion has been the face of

Every human pain and sorrow.

Compassion has held the dream

Of horizens and tomorrow.

Compassion knows no judgement,

Having walked all roads in time,

And praises all weary warriors,

For the mountains they have climbed.
