A Small Act of Kindness

A small act of kindness is not failing;
it elevates the mood and warms the heart.
Due to this humanity’s prevailing.

On the sea of love kindness is sailing;
the act of kindness always does its part.
A small act of kindness is not failing.

Random are the many sights we’re trailing;
the strength of evolution’s off the chart.
Due to this humanity’s prevailing.

Cruel is like the pound of rusty nailing;
the pierce of nastiness from fast flung dart.
A small act of kindness is not failing.

On a sinking ship there's need for bailing;
man in his wisdom finds a way to thwart.
Due to this humanity's prevailing.

Good enthusiastically is hailing;
opposing good upsets the applecart.
A small act of kindness is not failing;
due to this humanity's prevailing.
