care for those who stood beside you

care for those who stand near you

care for those who entered your life

care no less for those unknown,

yet to pass your lifeline

care more for those who helped and will help you

care....

 

have faith in yourself

have faith in all that is

have faith in the day that passes by once more

have faith in everything you can feel, see, or hear

have faith in the unknown

have faith....

 

love your fellow man

love your friends

love your family

love the spirits from within

love the world for it brings so much wonders

love...

I like this. The direct message, and steady repetition make it feel like a march, or a chant being taken up by folk as they band together to help a neighbor...

 

Sometimes unvarnished words can stir the strongest feelings. :>)

My pleasure. For what it's worth, I've been writing poetry on and off since high school, and I'm still greatly dissatisfied with most of what I write- but I've heard no such reaction ever from readers, even my family (and you know you can count on family to be brutal. :P ).

 

So you never know!
