By Maya Green
In a fast moving, and ever changing world
Be as adept as a martial arts Champ
Or else be equipped with padded gloves
For a ‘catch-the-falling-knife’ is the game
People trust actions, more than words
To build or gain trust takes like forever
In a second, all can come tumbling down
And credibility lost, is impossible to recover
Feelings come and go, making you blue
The human mind is but a guest house
Every minute a new arrival, sans any clue
They come and go, as transient nomads
Change or transformation is always needed
For something extraordinary, it’s mandated Likewise carbon transforms into a diamond
Should it be any easier, for the human?
So is our interactions with fellow humans We need to be mindful, of our intention
For it’s not how much you think as humans
But how much you care — that is important!
