I've wept over and seen too much
of the world's cruelty and misery
it's my humble sacred duty
to exercise my utmost humanity-

wars, conflicts and devastation
the massive hunger and isolation
children who have never known
a single day of peace or consolation-

how I do hate the word 'ideology'
it divides people into every conceivable category
(the 'I',  'You'  and 'They' become a huge chasm )
a justification for acts against humanity-

yet,  we're all an integral part
of one global community:
let love and compassion flourish
to herald in an enlightened century.

Happiness shared
is doubly blessed

lt's not your good look
or talent that attracts others
but your spontaneous charm
expressed in naturalness

My very old age

is of no disadvantage:

I can still appear on the stage

and much noise I can make!

Love is perceived
not by reason
but mainly
by imagination

You like yourself

this is fine

but indulgence

will make you blind

For everything
there's a limit-
even love or enjoyment
this saying does fit!
