Poem: The Trumpet
The trumpet has blown.
For those was have not received their body
And realized
That it is the reservoir
Of their potential
And the essence
Of themselves.
The trumpet has blown
For those who haven’t embraced
Respect , acceptance, self esteem
And pleasure
For these are the corner stones
The trumpet has blown
For those who have failed
To see lessons presented to them
Who have failed to embody
Openness, choice grace and fairness.
The trumpet has blown
For those who have mistaken
Their lessons to be mistakes
Who have thrown compassion
Out of the window,
Those who have shunned forgiveness
Who have relegated ethics
To the periphery
And blocked the ears to humor.
The trumpet has blown
For those whom lessons are repeated
And never learnt.
Awareness, willingness, causality and patience
Must now be the food.
