Scoff not at the tears of the broken man
for ridicule breeds emotional quicksand
Mourn not the spirit of the battered wife
for pity grows nothing in the fields of life
Turn no deaf ear to the anguished cries
for ignorance is not bliss if the child dies
Reach out with compassion and lend a hand
to renew their faith in the kindness of man
Give them strength to break free of the chains
of the past so wrought with heartach and pain
Nurture their courage to rise above
by sowing hope through the seeds of love

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Great job!!
