Kindness falls ragged
Intertwined with the whirling cold
Sparking reveries
Of their drawn and treasured paths
Grazed the lives of many
To salvage our human resolve

The kind mustn’t displace
The timid mustn’t recede
For the sparse subdued
Crave their loving premonitions

They must hail
Their compassionate refrain
Loyal to a whim
Bound between the meager flesh and bone

A thoughtful stride
Can calm any earthly tide
Firm, joyous and unshaken by grief

The journey remains
Sprawled before the meek
Awaiting for the first
That bears the urge:
Embark
